When deploying a Windows 7 Image with IE v10 installed, Mini-Setup fails due to an out-dated setting in the default unattend.xml file produced by MDT2012 Update 1.
Here is the error that displays in setupact.log file:
[windeploy.exe] Failure occurred during online installation. Online installation cannot complete at this time.; hr = 0x80004005
To fix the issue, you must remove the IEWelcomeMsg outdated unattend setting in the “Microsoft-Windows-IE-InternetExplorer” component.

false
Once you remove this setting, your deployment will work with no issues.
