Unattented install on HP Gen9 fail in BFS


hi,

i'm trying automate installation of windows 2012r2 , 2008r2 uefi, , bios. use winpe 4.1 disk boot server.

- works on vmware uefi mode vm 40 gb vmdk disk.

- on hp gen 9 in uefi or bios mode, server setup unable install system because says can't find suitable partition. use 64 gb lun on san through virtual connect.

on both, disk partitions created windows setup according unattended.xml file.
  partition 1    recovery           350 mb
  partition 2    system             100 mb
  partition 3    reserved           128 mb
  partition 4    primary             64 gb : hp gen 9, , 39 gb vm using virtual disk.

for hp gen 9, setupact.log says :

summary - ccp check passed; able calculate space reqs; able find install location; location type meets installation reqs; size of location not small; location free space enough; location free space not meet recommendation

and then, there strange message :

info       [0x0606cc] ibs    getsystemdiskntpath: unable required buffer size system disk bcd apis; status = 0xc0000451

so far understand, free space large enough not meet recommendation. why setup can't install windows ?

i read here https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-windows_install/netbook-usb-install-error-setup-was-unable-to/f1d3a741-5f53-4551-8714-e07ff4c7f0c1 had issue if usb drive connected.

on hp gen9, ilo (bmc interface) seen providing , usb disk , seen winpe environnment hp ilo internal sd-card usb device. , seen disk 2.

hi,
 
according description, understanding that:
disabling internal sd card slot in bios/uefi, unattented install on hp gen9 able completed.

in general, recommend remove external equipment before installation. recommend confirm problem hardware vendor(hp). or, if there firmware/driver update windows server 2012.

best regards,
eve wang
