Hi!

If I create a "Prepare to capture" installation of Vista and BDD, then machines installs properly according to my unattend.xml file. Once installed, I can run sysprep pointing to a specific sysprep.xml file which will launch an application once it is finished. This works.... however, I dont wanna use the "Prepare to capture" feature, I wanna use the "Capture" feature. The problem here is that BDD does not create a "sysprep.xml" file, only the unattend.xml file. If I want to have a specific application executed once when the machine comes out of sysprep, but not in the unattended installation, then how would I describe that in the .xml files?

Cause if I specify that the <app1.exe> will be launched from the OOBE (RunSynchronous) section, the <app1.exe> will executed both from within the unattend install as well as when the machine is coming up from sysprep. The only solution that I can think of is to break out the OOBE section into a seperate .xml file, and then have BDD to point on that .xml file once it runs sysprep. But, as mentioned, I dont know where that file is or where BDD reads from?
