Sysprep Vista and ximage

[Guest]

Hello,

Has anyone been successfull with sysprepping a vista client and restoring
that ximage ?

Having read the docs I performed the following steps.

Prepare:
1. Run unattended Vista install
2. make some customizations
3. Run sysprep /image
4. capture image with ximage /capture.....


Deploy
1. create partition
2. format disk
3. restore wim image ximage /apply

I expected vista to boot now, instead the vista bootloader appears, but then
produces an error not finding the system....

Any ideas ?, did i miss something ?
Thanks

Alex

Did you use the "WAIK - Automated Installation and Deployment Tools"
available for Vista from the Microsoft Connect beta web site?
