Autounattended Halt at disk options + I have questions as I'm new to this

Greetings,

I have binged/googled etc and can find the answer to my questions. I am new to using autounattended type of files. This question is based on a corporate volume license.

Question

If I install Windows 7 pro manually the setup process will create a 100 meg system partition. Do I need to specify this in an Autounattended.xml?

My autounattended halts at the disk setup options. I also had an issue where it did not like the product key. I was able to fix that by using it in "specialize" area.

Here is my Autounattended.xm
