I use RIS to install the OS, followed by an unattended installation script
on reboot for the apps. This includes an unattended MF install. I can
provision a brand new server in 30 minutes using this method, without the
problems cited in this thread. At the very least I would recommend leaving
MF off the base image and creating an unattended install that can be run
after it is ready to join the farm.

Had the same problem ourselves just last week (using altiris RDP). A new
image fixed it, but I believe that's only because it had a fresh lhc (as
recreating the lhc after a build also fixed the problem). We now do a
recreatelhc after the image has been applied before restarting the IMA
service. Not saying this is the solution though, still looking into the
specifics...

What we are doing:
We are setting up servers using sysprep. We set it all up, install mf, do
the clean up as per citrix cloning docs (does not include removing from farm
in anyway). Then sysprep it.
Problem is:
The box we initially sysprep from does not go back into the farm correclty
ever again. We image it and try to add to farm and it does not work. We
have to do dsmaint recreatelhc to get it to go in.
I noticed that before adding it back the server is gone from the farm except
that it still shows up under zone information?
