http://www.bohack.com/2011/01/how-to-make-an-unattend-xml-sysprep-file/
I read the above and created Unattend.xml
I prepared Windows2008R2 and WDS.
I tried to install win7 to Hyper-V guest OS.
When turning on guest os , network installation starts but, locale and keyboad selection is displayed.
Unattend.xml is the following.
Could you please give me advise ?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Hi,
You can automate the entire deployment for Windows Deployment Services. To do this, you will need to create two different unattend files (one for the Windows Deployment Services UI screens, and one for the later phases of Setup).
Towards the detailed information about performing an unattend installation, you could refer to the link below:
Title: Performing an Unattended Installation
URL: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd637990(v=ws.10).aspxJust a reminder, please make sure that you have validated the unattend.xml file before associating the image and putting into the production usage.
