Windows 7 / Getting Started

Using LTI with MDT 2010

Prior to deploying Windows 7 by using LTI with MDT 2010, be sure to perform the following steps:

  • Create a deployment share, possibly in a lab environment, and add the appropriate resources to it. To add applications to the deployment share.
  • In the deployment share, create and customize task sequences that install Windows 7 as required.
  • Build any custom Windows 7 images required for deployment.
  • Test your deployment share and custom disk images in the lab.

Previous Tutorial "Developing Disk Images" describes how to fully stock the deployment share with applications, device drivers, packages, and operating system source files. It also describes how to create task sequences and build custom Windows 7 disk images. In this tutorial, you learn how to replicate your deployment share onto the production network and how to perform an LTI deployment by using it.
