Managing Distribution Points in SCCM

After installing SCCM 2007 I started trying to create image capture media by following the instructions here http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb694129.aspx

specifically this part - "5.Select the boot image that should be associated with the media. Click the Browse button to specify the computer architecture to be targeted with the captured image in the Select a Boot Image dialog box. Boot images must be available on one or more distribution points. For more information on distributing boot images, see Manage Distribution Points (Operating System Deployment). To specify the distribution point that contains the specified boot image, use the drop down list of available distribution points. Click OK."

I tried updating the distribution points with the images for the media creation to see the available distribution point in the wizard.

I followed this set of instructions http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/toolsctr/v1r0/index.jsp?topic=/dpsccm/dpsccm_t_troubleshooting_pxe_error.html

I found out that I needed to manually copy the images to the distribution point for it to show up. i followed the same instructions to copy as I did to update however I selected Manage instead of update. This took me to a wizard that allowed me to designate the server as a Distribution point.
