You must use the VMXNET3 network adapter. Using the default E1000 adapter can cause customization timeout errors during cloning.

Thanks a bunch for your reply, reading...., I want to create 2 or 3 master images, and 2 or 3 desktop pools, can I have different adapters running on the same env. 1 E1000 and 1 VMXNET3?

Thanks a bunch again

I can't say for sure what the outcome would be but I would assume it would work provided that the VMXNet3 card is set on top in the binding order.   You can set the binding order in the control panel for network connections under "advanced - advanced settings"
