I've got the same problem, this is what I did

extracted the MSDNAA image, opened the folder with nLite and removed some components. Then created an Autounattend.xml file with Windwos SIM. I also created a configuration set and I saved a folder in the root of my dvd named "oem" (whithout the $ marks).

If I then load the image in VMWare I get the following error:
Posted Image

"Cannot load bootstrap-settings for Windows PE given in the answerfile"

Installing without my answer file does just fine. It only takes the answer file if it's in the root of my DVD. replacing/removing the oem folder didn't do anything..

this is my AutoUnattend.xml file:

I don't know if it will fix the error but this setting is wrong. Try to change it to:

<InstallFrom>
	   <MetaData wcm:action="add">
			 <Key>/IMAGE/NAME</Key> 
			 <Value>Windows Vista ULTIMATE</Value> 
	   </MetaData>
</InstallFrom>

@ Jeroeneke:

Try to add the <InstallFrom> Tag to your answer file. At wich state does the error come up?

This error comes up before the installation even begins... when you should get the screen to click install (first screen you get) this pops up, so I don't get anything. Clicking "OK" just reboots my VM..

I will add the install from key and test it! thx!

Can you give an example of /IMAGE/NAME ?

the help file included in WAIK doesn't give that much information...

Ok... if you use imagex /info <PathToMyVistaDVD>\sources\install.wim you'll get something like the following:

Posted Image

MetaData gives you three options to identify the image you want to choose:

Key: /IMAGE/INDEX ----> Value = Value from <Image Index> (1 in the picture above)
Key: /IMAGE/NAME ----> Value = Value from <Name> (Windows Vista BUSINESS in the picture above)
Key: /IMAGE/DESCRIPTION -----> Value = Value from <Description> (Windows Vista BUSINESS in the picture above)

That means, you've the option to use for <Key> /IMAGE/INDEX OR /IMAGE/NAME OR /IMAGE/DESCRIPTION.

Than you use imagex /info to find the right value fot the Key you wanna use. For the example in the picture <MetaDate> would look like this:

<InstallFrom>
	   <MetaData wcm:action="add">
			 <Key>/IMAGE/INDEX</Key>
			 <Value>1</Value>
	   </MetaData>
</InstallFrom>

<InstallFrom>
	   <MetaData wcm:action="add">
			 <Key>/IMAGE/NAME</Key>
			 <Value>Windows Vista BUSINESS</Value>
	   </MetaData>
</InstallFrom>

<InstallFrom>
	   <MetaData wcm:action="add">
			 <Key>/IMAGE/DESCRIPTION</Key>
			 <Value>Windows Vista BUSINESS</Value>
	   </MetaData>
</InstallFrom>

I did what you described and it should be correct now, but it didn't work neither.

I'm thinking about testing my answer file on an original (non- vLited) copy of Vista.

this is the answer file i've tested with:

@Jeroeneke you have,

<InstallFrom>
	   <MetaData wcm:action="add">
			 <Value>1</Value>
			 <Key>/IMAGE/INDEX</Key>
	   </MetaData>
</InstallFrom>

Should Be,

<InstallFrom>
	   <MetaData wcm:action="add">
			 <Key>/IMAGE/INDEX</Key>
			 <Value>1</Value>
	   </MetaData>
</InstallFrom>

Thx,

it was done so by WSIM... :s

I've already noticed WSIM puts everyhting in the oposite order ...

EDIT: nope, still the same error!

I also get this error with the original image of Vista... I guess it's something else ?

I fixed the error by copying the complete WinPE part of this file:
http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?s=&...st&p=610296

The only thing left is that I'm not able to install without a key... There are some problems with my MSDNAA account (for everybody of my school), we're waiting already more than a month on Vista keys...

Just to let you know, that someone on this forum, did install without the key. I can't recall where right now, but I will try and find it for you. You could google this site for vista unattended in the mean time.

I also can't install without a key (I haven't got one at the moment, it should be here every minute...) I think it is impossible to skip the key part if you don't have one.. unless we find the guy that was able to...

it isn't such a big problem, the only disadvantage is taht I'll have to wait to continu till I hace a key
