Overflow in Sharing BufferWhen Using DOS Boot Images

Symptom:

Installation using share based access stops with the following error message on the target machine:

‘Error 36: The system has detected an overflow in the sharing buffer.’

Solution:

When installing OS images using share based access to the boot server, on certain types of target hardware the installation stops with this message. In this case use WinPE or switch the responsible boot server to TFTP access mode.
