hello, I've created a prestaged image, containing all the needed packages for the task sequence, total size is around 23gig
now, after copying it to the targeted computer's hard drive (hyperV Vm) and rebooting, then selecting the corresponding TS, it does the "resolving task sequence dependencies" for more than 40 minutes.
I don't see any relevant error in the smsts.log, it's just processing each file at a time.
is that a normal behavior?
is there a way to speed up the resolving process (or bypass it alltogether).
In those package I have a lot of drivers packages for different model (so a lot of file.)
here is an extract of the smsts.log file, some errors but nothing critical I think... it's just slow.
