Sysprep + SATA

[runedar]

Oh no you think, another noob asking for how to integrate SATA/RAID drivers into a CD...

Well, you are wrong, I am working on a sysprep installation, where my goal is to include support for Intel SATA AHCI ICH6 through 10.

I've already successfully made a sysprep with Intel SATA AHCI ICH6 to 8 last summer, and one with Intel SATA AHCI ICH 7 to 10 just recently.

My problem is this, if I then try to have them both in the same image, it all fails. It fails at the part where I think it is checking the registry.

Somehow it is conflicting.

Now I thought to myself, maybe it is a conflict, so I removed the newest driver just to make sure it works with the old SATA AHCI only, it does not. Sysprep fails altogether.

What I've done to include the drivers is as following:

• Clear the MassStorage section of sysprep.inf
  
• Add my drivers only here like this(placing the drivers in the proper folders):

  [Sysprep]
  BuildMassStorageSection=Yes
  
  [SysprepMassStorage]
  ; Intel SATA AHCI ICH 7 to 10 support
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_3A22&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\1\iaachi.inf
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_3A02&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\1\iaachi.inf
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2929&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\1\iaachi.inf
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2922&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\1\iaachi.inf
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2829&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\1\iaachi.inf
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2821&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\1\iaachi.inf
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\1\iaachi.inf
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C1&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\1\iaachi.inf
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2681&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\1\iaachi.inf
  ; End of Intel SATA AHCI ICH 7 to 10 support
  ;
  ; Intel SATA AHCI ICH 6 support
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\2\iaachi.inf
  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2652&CC_0106=C:\drivers\sata\2\iaachi.inf
  ; end of Intel SATA AHCI ICH 6 support
  ;
  ; Included stuff:

  
  

• I've also tried about editing the TXTSETUP.OEM to remove any conflicts which may arise, with no luck
  

Do you have any tips of what I might do to make this work? This fails at sysprep.exe stage, not at booting with BSOD, then there would have been something else. My old sysprep.inf was very much alike, except with the older driver.
