I've got a bunch of updated and customized windows 7 images that work great and save me a ton of time. I've been trying to do the same with vista, but am running into an issue that I suspect is easily resolved but not sure.
I can install and update/customize vista fine in VirtualBox, using sysprep. Now to capture the image, I am using the windows 7 PE disk to run imagex. Is this ok, or do I need to make and use a Vista PE disk? I'm also using the same disk to apply the image.
Whenever I do this though, Vista will not start up properly. Its been awhile since the last attempt I made, so I can't recall the error message, but I can try it again if needed, but I mainly want to make sure its ok to use a 7pe to apply a vista image. And while we're at it, would it also work for a windows 8 image?
