Me again,

Ok, I have this semi....err.....semi kind of working.

I created and captured an image using MDT 2010. That was nice.

It boots using WDS using the LiteTouchPE_x64.iso and it syspreps, but it still asks me questions like choose language, where to install, product key, network location, etc. and the admin username and password, I assume for domain joining.

But, once booted, the machine is joined to the domain sucessfully and seems to work fine.

What steps do I need to take to get the unattended bit working properly?
 
ok cool. i was tripping up over the language codes and the time zones.....fail, now i do. Thanks guys

EDIT: Ok, its looking cool but on the Solutions Accelerators page a "User Credential" box appears which now has my username and domain prefilled but even though I have put the password in the boot.ini and customsettings file, it asks me for it.

:(

Double edit, had a few more windows appear where I had to enter some stuff which I've already answered in the files above but its 98% there I'd say.

could it be to do with joining the PC to a domain in the rules.ini?

In mine I have the following which automatically joins the machine to our domain.

SkipDomainMembership=YES
JoinDomain=<DOMAIN>
DomainAdmin=<USERNAME>
DomainAdminDomain=<DOMAIN>
DomainAdminPassword=<PASSWORD>

I have that in there :) The only thing I can think of, is my password has a special character, given I enter it in the rules.ini in GB but the setup UI is in US, would that honestly matter do you think?
 
This is pretty much the first screen I am presented with
