I've created a custom install.wim for my Windows 7 installations. It works just fine if I go through the install wizard manually. As soon as I add a "autounattend.xml" file to my install medium I get this error "There are no installation copy's available" in the screen where you normally have the choice to install "Home, Ultimate, ...".

I Suppose the problem is somewhere in my autounattend.xml file, maybe here ? 

<InstallFrom>
<MetaData wcm:action="add">
<Key>/IMAGE/INDEX</Key>
<Value>1</Value>
</MetaData>
</InstallFrom>

Any help would be much appreciated

It’s easy to check the indexes on your image with DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management). From an elevated command prompt, type “DISM /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:d:\sources\install.wim”. Don’t use the quotes and change the path to the location of your .wim image. This command and the output are discussed in the TechNet article ‘Best Practices for Image Deployment’, in the section titled ‘Selecting the Windows Image to Install During Windows Setup’ (about half way down the page). I also found the DISM command and several XML examples on the MetaData page of the Unattended Windows Setup Reference on TechNet.

More deployment related articles and videos can be found on the Deliver and Deploy Windows 7 page of the Springboard Series on TechNet

Hope this helps.
