Is there some error report that you can share?
Have you tried create the unattended file using ICE?

Do you want to create a new partition or use an existing one? You only need to use ModifyPartition for an existing one. Here is a snippet of some settings we use.
<DiskConfiguration>
<WillShowUI>Never</WillShowUI>
<Disk wcm:action="add">
<ModifyPartitions>
<ModifyPartition wcm:action="add">
<PartitionID>1</PartitionID>
<Order>1</Order>
<Label>System</Label>
<Letter>C</Letter>
<Format>NTFS</Format>
<!-- set partition to not be active - to preserve boot menu -->
<Active>false</Active>
</ModifyPartition>
</ModifyPartitions>
<DiskID>0</DiskID>
<WillWipeDisk>false</WillWipeDisk>
</Disk>
</DiskConfiguration>
<ImageInstall>
<OSImage>
<InstallFrom>
<MetaData wcm:action="add">
<Key>Image/Name</Key>
<Value>Windows Embedded Standard 7</Value>
</MetaData>
</InstallFrom>
<InstallTo>
<PartitionID>1</PartitionID>
<DiskID>0</DiskID>
</InstallTo>
<WillShowUI>Never</WillShowUI>
</OSImage>
</ImageInstall>
