WDSClientUnattend.xml UEFI ISsue

I'm having some trouble getting a WDS server to deploy an image to a UEFI enabled machine. I have been playing with the unattend file off and on for a few days now but just can't seem to figure out what the issue is. Below is an example of what settings are in my unattend file.

I connect to the server fine and it brings up my list of images that are available on the server and after I select one I'm asking to select a partition install the image onto even if the hard drive has no partitions. No matter what I select at the partition select screen I'm getting a "Windows could not prepare the partition selected for installation" error message. I'm just not sure why the disk configuration section is not getting applied.
