On a related note, the drivers for these are native to 8.1 and include a USB 
pass-through that will allow both network connectivity and boot from deployment

So is using the network not an option and that’s why you pursued the offline 
media?

For LTI, sharing the USB network adapter among devices is less of an issue than 
what we would encounter with ConfigMgr.

Subject: [MDT-OSD] Dell Venue 8 Pro with MDT

So I'm working through some of the challenges with imaging tablets that have no 
network port.  I also have no dock with a network port.  I decided to try 
building some media with MDT that has all the components I need.  Problem is 
it's uEFI only which means I need a fat32 formatted USB stick.  My image is 
over 4GB so it won't fit on the boot partition.  I saw Michael Niehaus make a 
comment at the end of his uEFI blog post saying:

"There are a few solutions to that, some of which you might not immediately 
think of, such as partitioning the media into FAT32 for boot files and NTFS for 
everything else."

Everything I've read along these lines suggests you need to have a USB stick 
that shows up as a fixed disk or this won't work.  Back when he wrote that 
comment I don't think USB sticks like that even existed.  Can anyone confirm 
that is a requirement?

Another option seems to be using split WIM files.  From what I've read they are 
not supported by Windows 8 setup though.  MDT doesn't use setup any more, but 
I'm guessing it's still a limitation without tweaking the DISM logic.

Even with the increase in tablets I'm not seeing a lot of information on the 
net that addresses these challenges.  Tips?
