Unattended Install of Windows Server:

$

Hello All,

I am looking to create an unattended install of Windows Server 2016 either from a network drive or USB.  I have found several articles and the solutions provided do not seem to work.  The furthest I was able to get was to create an unattend.xml file, however the result is just a reboot loop when the install runs.  Furthermore, I cant find any logs to debug it.

Several years ago I was able to do this with Server 2003, but no luck with 2016.  It looks like the process is far more complex since the image manager is now required.

Some articles and docs suggest AIK, others suggest MDT.  Which one works?

Does anyone here have a working example they could post?

Regards,
WS
