I followed the steps in the tutorial, but after the virtual machine is created and started, I get an error with the unattend.xml file in line 5 column 3.
It is in this line:
<ad:set name="architecture" value="amd64" />
I ran the WSIM tool and tried to open the xml file, and it gives me this error:
System.Xml.XmlException: 'ad' is an undeclared namespace. Line 4, position 4.

Can anyone help?
I suspect it has something to do with the index.xml..maybe i am missing something there. can someone direct me to a sample index.xml file with all parameters?
Hello,
Are you using HyperV 2008 or 2012+?
If using 2008 you do need the XML. There is a post about it at https://solidcp.com/forum/question/solidcp-os-templates/
The unattend.xml doesn't open in WSIM as we use some variables which are processed by SolidCP during the creation. You can see a sample unattend file at http://installer.solidcp.com/Files/stable/Tools/Sysprep/.
Kind Regards,
