J\u00f6rgen Nilsson have a great post here<\/a> on how to do the BIOS to UEFI switch on one task sequence in SCCM. There was a couple times during his guide where I had to try different things before I could get it to work. So that is why I made this post.<\/p>\n

All the credit goes of course to J\u00f6rgen Nilsson!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

x1. Download copy.cmd<\/a><\/p>\n

x2. Download TSEnv2-6.0.0.5 from 1E (http:\/\/info.1e.com\/website-freetools-1e-tsenv2<\/a>)<\/p>\n

1. Localize your \u201c\\\\SERVER\\DRIVE$\\Microsoft<\/a> Configuration Manager\\OSD\\bin\u201d.<\/p>\n

2. Copy the corresponding version of TSEnv2.exe to the x64 as well as the i386<\/strong> subfolder.<\/p>\n

3. Open \\\\SERVER\\DRIVE$\\Microsoft<\/a> Configuration Manager\\bin\\X64\\osdinjection.xml in notepad or similar.
Remark \u2013 there\u2019s only one osdinjection.xml, not one per architecture. <\/strong>Remember to Backup osdinjection.xml before editing.<\/strong><\/p>\n

4. There\u2019s already a native file with similar name (tsenv.exe). Search for that and copy the section, thus avoiding misspelling.<\/p>\n

First hit when searching should give this:\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Copy (duplicate) the section and replace the file name:<\/p>\n

\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The result should look like this:  \"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Repeat for x64 <\/strong>(second hit when searching for tsenv.exe):\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

5. Save and close \u201cosdinjection.xml\u201d. Next time a boot image is updated on distribution points TSEnv2.exe will be included.<\/p>\n

6. Update the boot image on the distribution points or create a new Boot image.<\/p>\n

7. Open the SCCM console<\/p>\n

8. Click on \u201cCreate a Task sequence Media\u201d (\\Software Library\\Overview\\Operating Systems\\Task Sequences)\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

9. Choose \u201cBootable media\u201d and click \u201cNext\u201d\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

10. Select \u201cSite-based media\u201d and click \u201cnext\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

11. Select \u201cCD\/DVD set\u201d and click \u201cNext\u201d\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

12. Remove the check mark in \u201cEnable unknown computer support\u201d and \u201cProtect media with a password\u201d and click \u201cNext\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

13. Choose your boot image, Distribution point, Management point and click \u201cNext\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

14. Click \u201cNext\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

15. Click \u201cNext\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

16. Click \u201cClose\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

17. Mount the iso file you just created<\/p>\n

18. Create a folder on your SCCM package share and called \u201cUEFI_To_Bios\u201d<\/p>\n

19. Copy all the files from the iso you mounted in step 17 to the folder that you just created on the SCCM package share.<\/p>\n

20. Copy the file \u201ccopy.cmd\u201d (The one that you downloaded as step x1) to the root of the folder you created in step 18\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

21. Create a package in SCCM. Call it \u201cUEFI to Bios\u201d and choose the folder you created in step 18 as Source Folder. Click \u201cNext\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

22. Choose \u201cDo not create a program\u201d and click \u201cNext\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

23. Click \u201cNext\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

24. Click \u201cClose\u201d\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

25. Replicate the package to your distribution points<\/p>\n

26. Open your task sequence and create a new group called \u201cTransform to UEFI<\/strong>\u201d as the first step in the task sequence.<\/p>\n

27. Create the following condition on the \u201cTransform to UEFI\u201d folder: _SMSTSBootUEFI equals False \"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

28. Create the BIOS settings and folder structure as descripted in this post<\/a>\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

29. Use a standard \u201cFormat and Partition Disk\u201d step to create a GPT disk with a minimal UEFI-compatible partition. The automatically assigned drive letter will be stored in \u201cOSDisk<\/strong>\u201d.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

30. Add \u201cRun command line\u201d step called \u201cCopy Boot Media To Disk\u201d\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Command<\/strong>: copy.cmd %OSDisk%
\u201dOSDisk\u201d contains the drive letter and tells copy.cmd where to put the content.<\/p>\n

31. Create another \u201cRun Command Line\u201d step and call it \u201cSet _SMSTSServiceStartType to auto\u201d<\/p>\n

\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Command<\/strong>: TSEnv2.exe set _SMSTSServiceStartType=auto<\/p>\n

32. Add a \u201cRestart Computer\u201d step.\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

33. Add another \u201cRun Command Line\u201d step and call it: \u201cSET _SMSTSBootUEFI to true\u201d\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Command<\/strong>: TSEnv2.exe set _SMSTSBootUEFI=true<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That\u2019s it.<\/p>\n\"twitter\"<\/a>\"linkedin\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
