auto_create_image.vbs error
I'm trying to create a base Windows XP image for VCL and following the
instructions (below) on the wiki, I've come across a problem.
*
Instructions on the Wiki:
*
> More stuff to do

When I try to run auto_create_image.vbs it seems to error out on the
comments section. I've looked at the file and nothing is apparent on what
could be wrong because it is commented out. Everything up until this point
has worked fine.
*Here's what I could copy from the cmd prompt:
*

Thanks Andy, that worked. Simple mistake on my part.

VBS scripts are run using cscript.exe. Try running:
cscript.exe auto_create_image.vbs
What is the URL of the page you're referring to? It needs to be corrected.
