I know this is a particularly difficult thing to troubleshoot as there are various complexities in the setup, but wondering if anyone has experienced this and can recognise the issue / offer some steps to troubleshoot.

Firstl, is WAIK required before you can use WDS for a capture?

I'm running virtualbox on a macbook pro.

Setup:

  • Server 2008 Roles: DHCP, Active Directory, DC, WDS

  • Windows 7 - receives DHCP from the PDC and receives DHCP upon PXE Boot

Both VMs have bridged adapters.

I have added windows 7 install and boot images and gone through the process of creating a Capture Image in preparation for the PXE Boot to capture the installed OS.

My Windows 7 virtualbox is set to network boot, it runs through the PXE Boot obtains DHCP but then states "No filename" and continues to boot off the hard disk.

Hope I have included all the information you will need to know! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you configured DHCP options 66 and 67? 66 should be set to the WDS server and option 67 should be set to boot\x86\wdsnbp.com.
