I was using Package Source as a remote network directory that is specifically used for OSD related packages, but it was throwing me errors. It was due to permission difficulties, as you can see from the error message - "Failed to make a copy of the source WIM file due to error 5"; To overcome this, utilise the Configuration Manager OSD Boot default folder, which is "\\<ConfigMgr Server>\SMS (SiteCode)\OSD\boot" - created a new folder within the boot folder called MDT (any name would do) and reran the MDT Boot Image creation; it worked perfectly.
