Today i have had some troubles with networking when I tried Win7RescuePE in VirtualBox.

To resolve:

• It is not necessary to include "Net\VirtualBoxNIC_AMD_PCNET.script"
  This script can be removed from the project
• Add a line in "Finalize\4-iso.script"
  

  echo,"Creating ISO: [%isofile%] Folder size: %sizeFolder%"
  ##fix 02.01.2008
  Set,%burnISO%,%ISOFile%,PERMANENT
  If,"%BootSect%",Equal,"Boot/etfsboot.com",Run,%ScriptFile%,NormalCD
  If,"%BootSect%",NotEqual,"Boot/etfsboot.com",Run,%ScriptFile%,CompatibleCD

• Use my latest VitualBox.Script and change the [Main] Level from 7 to 8 (avoids to have two items "VirtualTest")

Using the above description, inside the running PE starting Holger's PENetwork will install everything necessary.
(I have no opinion whether there are other ways to start networking)

EDIT: Just to explain for developers: Win7 does not know some XP / W2003 NICs, and XP W2003 does not know Win7 NICs:

If,%WimMajor%%WimMinor%,EQUAL,61,ShellExecute,Hide,%VBExe%,"modifyvm %BoxName% --nictype1 82540EM"
