PEBuilder : iaStor.sys not found

[jodan]

Hi,

I have been trying to slipstream the Intel TextMode SATA drivers using nLite.

But whenever I tried to use the PEBuilder to build a BARTPE, I have this warning.

Warning: File "iastor.sys" not found

As a result, I am unable to boot into a system with a SATA HDD drive.

I have googled and search the forums for answers, but nothing seems to work.

I have input the strings manually, but the warning is always the same.

Any advice? Thanks!

Hello,

Normally in your nlite files you should have a i386 folder, inside and NLDRV folder and inside this one a 001 folder which contains the iastor.sy_ file which is the compressed file...

just change the pe logfile to look for iastor.sy_ instead of iastor.sys and all should be fine....

PEBuilder process layout.inf to select files. Iastor is missing in layout.inf.

Hence file is not copied and missing at final BartPE.

Avoid nlited source files for PEBuilder so far. Or copy missing files yourself.

Hi Jchuillier,

Where can I find the log file?

I can see pebuilder.log, but it is contains the log of the BARTPE Build after it is processed.

Did a search for log in the PEBuilder3110a and Slipstream folder, but pebuilder.log seems to be the only log file available.

I tried to copy IASTOR.SYS into 001 folder, but it still won't work.

Hi cdob,

Can I add the string for iastor.sys into the layout.inf manually?

Will try this in a while.

I will copy the IASTOR.SYS into minint after the build, will check how it progresses.

Will keep you guys posted. Thanks!

Thanks, guys!

Problem solved!

I added the iastor.sys string into Layout.inf.

I have to include the iastor.sys into the i386 folder too.

How did you modify your layout.inf ans where did you add the iastor.sys line?

I'm trying to get a BARTPE disk to work w/ a Dell Lat E4200.

Thanks

I use notepad to edit layout.inf.

I added ia.Stor under [sourceDisksFiles]

[sourceDisksFiles]

iaStor.sys = 1,,,,,,4_,4,1,,,1,4
