I was talking about this on the devel list, but realised this was more
appropriate. My apologies.
Anyway, I was asking if there was any further progress on Win7, and was
told that really it's just what's up on the site
(http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/unattended/ticket/3 and
Whoops...think I might've sent the last reply to Gary only. Anyway, to
summarise - XP x64 isn't being recognized by install.pl, since it
doesn't have the txtsetup.sif and other files that it looks for. Gary
asked me to detail the directory layout on the CD. The root of the CD
has AMD64, Docs,

but if anyone has any updates on it or info since 2005, that'd be great.
Thanks!
I recommend that you do some research on using the Microsoft Windows
Automated Installation Kit (WAIK) for better understanding of installing
Vista/Win7/Win2008 using WinPE. After that, you will have a better
understanding of installing Win7 32-bit and 64-bit.

I've used WAIK for installs extensively from a Windows Deployment
Server. However, I was really hoping to move away from the Windows
Deployment Server, so I'm trying to figure out what my other options
are.

A WDS server is not necessary for a WinPE-based deployment. In fact, you
can burn a WinPE iso and use it to deploy Win7/Win2008.
Another option is using a Linux DHCP/TFTP server as your PXE server - see
examples below
