It's now time for conclusion. After burning 15 cds and dvds, here is what I found: 1.- Post #1 oem method works great. 2.- You may actually copy only 3 files in OEMDIR (pataraid/nvatabus.inf, sataraid/nvatabus.sys and sataraid/idecoi.dll) and set [OemInfFiles]->OemInfName to "nvatabus.inf", it works too. 3.- Don't even think about changing the [unattended]->UnattendMode setting to anything else than FullUnattended, the installation will BSOD in the textmode part of the installation. 4.- During the nLite drivers integration process, you must choose IDE\WinXP\sataraid\nvraid.inf and then select both textmode entries displayed by nLite. You may also pick up the other nForce4 drivers: Network support: pick up Ethernet\nvenetfd.inf Audio support: pick up AudioDrv\nvmcp.inf SMBus support: pick up SMBus\nvsmbus.inf You do not need to add any other file in the OEMDIR for Network, Audio or SMBus support. 5.- It's perfectly safe, once the Windows XP installation is complete, to reinstall the 6.66 drivers from the original NVIDIA package (system reboot required at the end). It will install the audio systray apps that is not included in the drivers for example. 6.- As a reference, here is the I386\WINNT.SIF file I used: ---------- file begins on next line ; Generated by nLite 1.0 beta 6 [Data] Autopartition = 0 MsDosInitiated = 0 UnattendedInstall = Yes OemDrivers = OemInfFiles [unattended] UnattendMode = FullUnattended UnattendSwitch = No OemPreinstall = Yes OemSkipEula = Yes FileSystem = * WaitForReboot = No NoWaitAfterTextMode = 1 NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1 TargetPath = WINDOWS DriverSigningPolicy = Ignore NonDriverSigningPolicy = Ignore [OemInfFiles] OemDriverFlags = 1 OemDriverPathName = "%SystemRoot%\OemDir" OemInfName = "nvraid.inf","nvatabus.inf" [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword = * ;OEMSkipRegional = 1 OemSkipWelcome = 1 [Components] msmsgs = Off Msnexplr = Off Zonegames = Off [userData] ComputerName = * FullName = * [Networking] ;InstallDefaultComponents = Yes ---------- file ends on previous line You may comment the AdminPassword, ComputerName and FullName lines BUT this will display an ugly non-fatal error during the graphical part of the setup that basically tells you: "Error, OEM settings missing, please enter a value now". It works but doesn't look too professional The [Components] section is parsed for a FullUnattended setup, so I decided to remove Windows Messenger (msmsgs), MSN Explorer (Msnexplr) and MSN Gaming Zone (Zonegames). 7.- Using a DVD to add more stuff on it (like applications) is fine. During my tests, however, I didn't create the iso with nLite. I've integrated the drivers and generated the full unattended setup with nLite, then I've added some apps and finally I used Nero to burn a bootable DVD, using a boot image (*.IMA) that I found on the net (but you might also extract it from your Windows XP setup cd). 8.- I'm not too sure about what to do with the raidtool directory. Even reinstalling the 6.66 drivers doesn't seem to help much. A shortcut to the nvraid manager (raidtool\NvRaidMan.exe) still has to be created manually. That's all I can think of. Cheers, - Stéphane
