MDT deploy image when logged into Windows - Format disks

[petben]

I would like to start MDT imaging from within Windows 10, so without PXE boot/WDS server.

 

I have it working by running Litetouch.vbs with a few switches (below) but from what i've read it only will ever do a REFRESH install, leaving all the software etc installed.

 

"\\server\deploymentshare$\Scripts\LiteTouch.vbs" /TaskSequenceID:WIN10_X64_0 /SkipTaskSequence:YES /SkipWizard:Yes /UserPassword:whatever

 

Is there any way that I can start the task Task Sequence in Windows but also wipe the disks?

Try editing customsettings.ini like this:

 

[settings]
Priority=[b]TaskSequenceID[/b], Default

[DeployW10]
DeployType=NewComputer

 

Add the bit in bold to the priority line at the top of customsettings.ini, then replace DeployW10 with the ID of your task sequence.

Thanks, I will try that. I have already tried

/DeployType:NewComputer

 

in the command line but that doesn't work.

 

Do you think it is possible to format Windows when in Windows

Unlikely, you'd want to tell it to reboot into WinPE and run your list of commands from there
