we have tried your steps given by you.
As per your recommendation we have copied the license folder of the vista into server2008 folder, but the folder names are same so we have overwritten the contents.
After that we install the OS in the virtual machine, but it was failed.
I am sending some of the errors image links below.
Also we are sending the some of the other steps that we had followed which are as given:
1) We had created a folder structure as given below. In this case we copied setup of Windows server 2008 in the folder named as Window Server 2008; in this folder we have created another folder named Vista which contains setup of vista.
2) After we have edited content of BCD of windows server 2008, where we have added new windows boot loader for Vista. After adding new boot loader, content of BCD file is as below.

3) We had created an iso image of a root folder and tried to install it on Virtual machine. It works fine for Windows Server 2008, But while installing windows vista System throws an error – Device drivers are missing.
