Just run that command before you sysprep and you'll be fine.

No problem at all; I'm glad my mistake could be of help to someone
I've been at this for about 30 years, and you would think by now that I would
RTFM lol! -- Eric

I figured it out Windows update had a pending reboot stuck....

Thanks!

@theopenem_admin You're right, I did shrink it before hand. I will recreate the image, thanks heaps!

@theopenem_admin Yeah it seems a reinstall did the trick. Should've done that first hahaha.

Thanks for everything you do.

Ic. You are going to have many diver issues with clonedeploy. It's too old. You should move to theopenem or use something else.

@jikeidan I definitely had an issue with my itptables ruleset - had an adapter "eth-" entered instead of "eth0" - was preventing

Thanks again!

@theopenem_admin Fantastic! Works like a charm - thanks!

@theopenem_admin I was able to get my script to work. I am switching over from CloneDeploy to Theopenem. I had a bash script in CloneDeploy that determined the model of the system being imaged and it would then copy over appropriate driver files based on model info. If there’s a better way or a built-in feature for doing this, please let me know?

It looks like the multiple efi loaders still isn't quite resolved. I'll look at this again.

@theopenem_admin Well, maybe I jumped the gun here I just tried it on a different computer and it appears to be working as expected (cache maybe?). I apologize for the premature support request, but I do appreciate your quick response!

@theopenem_admin
Wow, thank you so much for following up on this. Public thank you to this team, as you guys do not present that "pulling teeth" feeling that is so frequent elsewhere

I am going to deploy this and see what comes of it - I'll report back.

As an added note, I noticed that in every case of this occurring, I attempt a

net stop toec; net start toec;

and I receive a This service is currently stopping or starting
This very well may be related to an established start/stop connection as well, as if the server "crashes" and attempts to restart, the socket itself may have been hanging it.

Thanks again and I will let you know!

The permanent deploy feature was removed. I tried to scale back on features that only most people were using. However, the model match feature may work for you if you are using the same image based on models. I mean if a single model always gets the same image, it could work for you.

Thanks for your quick answer.
I test tomorrow morning.

@theopenem_admin I think I tried default version. I'll double check tomorrow.
Do you recommend ipxe_efi64 ?

@theopenem_admin reinstalled and it appears to have resolved.

Output looks pretty standard. I think I'm gonna use a different machine to make the new image.
