I am using the evaluation ISO from Microsoft named "7601.17514.101119-1850_x64fre_server_eval_en-us-GRMSXEVAL_EN_DVD.iso"

I have edited autounattend.xml and replaced "Windows Server 2012 R2 SERVERSTANDARD" by Windows Server 2008 R2 SERVERSTANDARD

The installation fails quite early with the following error "Windows could not parse or process unattend answer file for pass [oobeSystem]"

Hi Jordan,

Going to check this out. All the initial tests have been performed with 2012 and 2012 R2.

The Autounattend.xml file has been updated in the repository with those lines commented out by default since they are only necessary on Windows 8 and 8.1
