that's what I meant, and most of the time you'll have to make (or at least customize) the sysprep file to do that. That's how it worked the last time I did this. Maybe it's possible to do this automatically by now.
Anyway, if you have a valid reason to do this it's not much of a hassle, but just to do a fresh install of an OS it's quite a hassle since that can be done in a much easier way.

correct me if i'm wrong but doing a system prep like that is for migrating from a vmdk file, i have done it plenty of time using the physical disk without a vmdk file and it worked 100% of the time with xp and ubuntu
