I've noticed that when installing Windows 8.1 the activation is not done by the end of the unattended installation and, actually, the serial number shown in the Activate Windows program is different than the one used to perform the installation. Also, when tring to activate the software it fails with the "Windows can't be activate. Try again later" message and no useful details about the error.
So, in order to avoid this issue, let's force the activation in the FirstLogon phase of the installation script.
