Baashart's Driverpacks to share instead of CD

[jeremyschubert]

I have used the instructions on this site to create an unattended install. But rather than putting the files on CD, I have them on a remote share. My client computers connect to the remote share to install XP (and W2K). I have slipped streamed Baashart's Driverpacks into the share with my XP files. I noticed that the base pack modified the winnt.sif file to read as follows. But I use an alternate SIF file in my setup. So do I just copy this to my alternate SIF file? Thanks,

Yes, just add those lines to the appropriate sections in your own WINNT.SIF.

Right you are, Bashrat! Egg on my face!

Just for those who are interested, I also had to copy the files presetup.cmd and setupuprog.exe to my $oem$\$$\system32 folder. Now, when I run the install, I get a message saying c:\DSPdsblr.ex and DPsFnsht files cannot be found. I'm assuming I have to copy them to my $oem$\$1 folder. Can anyone tell me where they would end up if I was slipstreaming to a 'normal' xp setup cd?

Thanks,

I found my answer at http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=227. This post shows answers the question 'Can anybody assist me in getting these driverpacks to install from a $OEM$ folder which is located on a network share, rather than on a CD?'
