    Hi Markus,

    I finally got a solution from Symantec Support. I skipped a step in one of the documents i used. I guess i was not clear on when to use it.

    I had  to uncheck the option Run Windows Mini-Setup while doing the restore to the Domain Controller.

    This option is a hidden switch in the Restore Anyware option.

     http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH55329 -> Using the Hidden Options for Restore Anyware when restoring an image from the Symantec Recovery Disk (SRD)

     http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH129112 -> Contains the screenshot that is used to access the hidden switches.

    I hope this helps the other guys in this scenario.
