Add a Windows client

This step is a quick test to see if everything went right and we can actually still deploy Windows Clients if we want to.

Step 1: Add a Windows boot image

It's the good old "right click and add image" option on boot images and hit that next button like you mean it. If all is well, a new boot image should be added.

Step 2: Add a Windows install image

This part is like step 1, only here you go to install images. Mount your Windows 10 iso (or just the source folder) and look for your install.wim file

These screenshots are actually taken from my completely working Linux deployment lab. As you can see, the Linux images don't show up on your WDS. This is because we changed the boot files, which make it go around your WDS after the initial PXE-boot. When you do this using the MDT tool, it's because the MDT-information is in the boot image. In this case however, we changed the boot files, which get loaded before the boot image.
