Sample #1 – ConfigMgr 2012 R2 Task Sequence for build and Capture

Here is the ConfigMgr 2012 R2 task sequence for build and capture. Please note I still recommend using MDT 2013 Lite Touch in general to build the reference image for ConfigMgr. You find more details on why here:

The battle begins – Building the perfect reference image for ConfigMgr 2012

Anyway, as you can see in the screenshot below, I have simply added instructions to reset the windows update list in between the various actions, to make sure the task sequence install all the updates. The command is:
WMIC /namespace:\\root\ccm path sms_client CALL TriggerSchedule "{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000113}" /NOINTERACTIVE
