Sysprep from 6.8 to 6.9

I have read many posts on this subject but still do not have a solid answer.



We have upgraded our DS from 6.8 to 6.9 SP1 MP1 and are having and issue with sysprep. During the create image I can see a sysprep folder made and a sysprep.inf file created (that has the correct info). After creating the image, when the system starts back up it goes to the welcome screen and wants all the answers filled out. I did a SHIFT+F10 to get to a command prompt and checked the sysprep folder. The folder is there but the sysprep file is now gone. There is a sysprep.inf file under C:\Program Files\Alitiris\Aclient. Why would it delete a file from the sysprep folder? These are the same jobs that worked just fine under 6.8



I guess I would like to know...what is the best was to actually create and deploy these images now that the options or some other mechanism has changed.



Thanks

Just a update.



If I enable sysprep support for both the create and deploy the image is able to configure. But I had to make sure that checkbox under Configuration:



Automatically perfrom config task after completing this imaging task

Boot to production to complete config task



where both checked. If i undue the sysprep or either of the checkboxs it wont config.



Again just FYI. Cant wait for the next SP
