Is there a relatively simple way to adjust SS to be able to deploy it via WDS or some other PXE alternative? Would love to start using it more widely but it is a bit labor intensive to deploy beyond a handful of machines.

If I prestaged a machine with the two partitions and a sysprepped image.vhd, could I then capture that entire two-partition disk to a wim for deployment? Assuming I set up the sysprepped vhd with a proper script it could automate the domain join and take me all the way from pxe to RDP-ability?

It'd certainly be possible to do, but someone (someone smarter than me!) would have to write a PXE boot image that'd grab the image.vhd off of a TFTP server, copy it to the target system etc... lots of work. Sorry.
