Introduction

Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) is a free tool for automating Windows OS deployments. It is sort of a scaled down SCCM if you like, with a focus on imaging. At an enterprise level, you will likely use SCCM, but for smaller companies, MDT might just do the trick, and even at home :-)

From part 1, we got all the tools we needed and are now ready to start installing MDT and getting started on our first reference image.

In part 2, we installed everything and got out first task sequence working. Now lets go further and finish off our reference image.

Now that we have captured our first reference image, we can import this reference image and start creating our production image right? Well, let do some reference image clean up first.
