Windows 10 - after upload - partition erased
-
I might have the same issue as this.
This morning, I tried uploading a resizable GPT image, and it appeared to upload ( I think ), but now the source host will not boot.
I don’t have time at the moment to mess with it too much though.
-
The only thing I can think of is it failed to bring back the original partitions?
I’m not seeing the same issue on my GPT system, but I’m also doing Linux, not Windows 10.

My attempt was with Windows 8.1

I believe this is the same problem here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/6535/windows-10-capture-deploy-woes/4

Just in case it’s unclear, I am doing uefi booting. Is there a real benefit to use this over legacy? If not, according to the other post referenced, it looks like legacy works just fine. I know I’ve been using legacy for all my other images (Windows 7)
Thanks!

@GFm Uefi does have benefits, but they’re really only seen (as far as I’ve been able to tell) on Spinner disks. When it comes to SSD’s they blaze through everything so quickly, any improvement between UEFI vs. BIOS is minimally noticed.
-
However, before changing the partition layout type, I’d rather figure out why uploads are clearing the partition table out. I’m not seeing the same problem on linux GPT so maybe I missed something very simple?
-
I’m willing to try some things out. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

@GFm I’m not at a computer that would suffice for trouble shooting. What time zone are you? I’m eastern standard. I’m hoping to maybe connect with you tomorrow morning my time? Of course when ever you can.

@Tom-Elliott @Wayne-Workman
FYI - I updated to the latest SVN 4728 and tried uploading… it worked! I did a quick image after, and that worked too! I saw the update on…

Thanks guys

@GFm I’m going to solve this post then. THanks for the patience and understanding.
