Vista Beta 2 failed to get installed on Virtual Server R2

Hi,

I used to run Vista February CTP on MS Virtual Server R2 hosted by XP Pro. I
tried to install Vista Beta 2 on the Virtual Server, but got "setup was
unable to find the windows end user license agreement" error message right
after I entered product key. I tried creating new virtual disk and manually
creating primary partition on it - to no avail. I also tried installing from
mapped ISO image and real DVD drive, and still no luck.

Any idea how to make Vista Beta 2 run on Virtual Server?

When you get this error message, it means you are using an incorrect product
key that does not match the version of Windows you are trying to install.
Make sure its not a Windows Longhorn Server key.

Vlad--

used Sonic Recorder to burn ISO, created virtual disk in MS Virtual PC of
32-bit Vista and also had problem. Applied 256 meg ram, 16GB virtual hdd and
received setupdll error with cd drive captured--also did not write down
license key so I'm stuck unless I buy CD or sign up with new passport
account. Don't want to upgrade, would like to run Vista in virtual node.
Might try install on boot and see if I have partition choices and if not,
it's a no go...
