you need to specify the wim and the location of the install image group, example:

                <ImageSelection>
                    <InstallImage>
                        <Filename>W7Thin.wim</Filename>
                        <ImageGroup>Windows 7</ImageGroup>
                        <ImageName>W7Thinpc</ImageName>
                    </InstallImage>
                    <InstallTo>
                        <DiskID>0</DiskID>
                        <PartitionID>1</PartitionID>
                    </InstallTo>
                </ImageSelection>
