  • 1.  Cannot boot after ghosting

    Posted Jun 15, 2017 03:27 PM

    I'm using 3.1 MP 6, when the deploy is finished, the computer fails to reboot and gives me the error PAGE FAULT IN NON PAGED AREA.

    This is the command line that is used: -CLONE,MODE=RESTORE,SRC=%IMAGE_FILENAME%,DST=1 -sure

    When it's deploying the drive letter are messed up as the C drive is renamed to D drive. Both system partition have C and F drive.

    I tried several thing to rebuild the boot sector but everything has failed so far.

    Anything I am missing?

    fseaide,

     

    Can you add the -ntexact switch to your command line options and attempt deployment again?

    -CLONE,MODE=RESTORE,SRC=%IMAGE_FILENAME%,DST=1 -sure -NTEXACT

     

    What type of hardware are you deploying to? SSD , etc..

    Is the client bios UEFI or Legacy?

    Was the image created from UEFI or Legacy bios?

    It's a standard sata drive and it's booting in Legacy mode.

    fseaide,

    Please provide an update as to whether using the -ntexact switch resolved the issue.

    Not really but I have foudn that I can repair the boot process by booting in safe mode. Not very conveniant but it's working.

    fseaide,

    I am glad you found a work around to get things working but that definitely is not ideal.

     

    I would recommend creating a new image following the below process.

     

    1. Run check disk on the machine and verify full functionality.

    2. Run create image task using -IB and -NOTRIM switches

    3. Run deploy image task using -NTEXACT and -NOTRIM switches.
