nLite, Sysprep and MassStorage drivers

[eray]

Hello all,

I have been using nLite very successfully for over a year. I have gone through many different documets on the web, from Microsoft's KB articles, the great "Art of OEM", and the vernalex guide. None of these seemed to be able to help me resolve automatically building a list of third party storage drivers for sysprep.inf. I used the SPDrvScan.exe, and removed OemSetupPath from Sysprep.inf, but it doesnt seem to add the C:\WINDOWS\NLDRV paths where it dumps the storage drivers after an nLite session, only the PnP drivers. I run "sysprep -bmsd" and it adds a list of all the drivers from c:\windows\inf, but I have to manually go into the *.inf files and parse out the PCI\VEN codes for the actual hardware I am using as they are not added to the BuildMassStorageSection.

Isn't there any easier way, or am I missing a step?

Thanks,

Eric

There is!

This is beta but it is very promissing:

http://driverpacks.sytes.net/driverpacks/N..._BASE_90201.exe

FindHwids.exe

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/driverfor...mp;big_mirror=0

Also look at the DriverPack MassStorage (which I'm packaging btw):

Personally, I use OfflineSysprep. It allows you to inject the single needed driver from PE into the offline OS.
