I've been asked to create task sequence media which will be used by our laptop supplier so they can pre-build the machines before they come to us. Is it possible to create a task sequence that builds so far, switches off and then upon the next boot it carries on from where it left off. The reason behind this is that the supplier does not have a connection to get our machines on the domain so the additional task upon first boot would be to join the domain when the user switches the machine on for the first time at site.
I've toyed with using something in Run Once and I've also looked at the pre-oem task sequence but that only appears to copy a full blown build down and run on first boot which would result in a lot of unhappy users if they had to wait a hour plus to build a machine.
Ideally this would need to be done using SCCM 2007.

Hope this makes sense.
