I am having the same problem many people have where I sysprep an image but when I try to capture it, I see no disk in the wizard. I have read the other posts and confirmed:
1. I have run sysprep on the server before rebooting with the generalize switch
2. I have not let the image boot back up prior network booting to WDS to run the capture wizard
3. In the capture wizard screen, I have used shift-f10 to run diskpart. I see all disks and all volumes on those disks. The only odd thing is disk 0 shows OFFLINE. I don't know if this is normal or not. If I bring it online, it has not affect. But regardless, I can see the volumes on the disk.
4. I have run regedit from the command prompt (above) and can load the offline registry from the OS disk. I have verified the two registry settings are correct to indicate a successful sysprep:
- Ensure that HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Setup\CloneTag exists
- Ensure that HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Setup\SystemSetupInProgress is set to 1
I have done this sucessful image captures hundreds of time...even on this exact model of server (HPE GEN10) with Windows 2016 just a few months ago - and it worked fine then. Now suddenly, it sees no disk.
So I guess the only thing that is odd, is that disk 0 shows offline in diskpart. Is that normal? Since I can see the disks and volumes, I have to assume I have the correct driver injected into my boot image. So what would make the disk be offline if that is not normal?
Thanks
