Using findstr to add entries to an inf/sif file?

[RyanVM]

I had a great idea for creating a batch file which automates the changes to winnt.sif and txtsetup.sif needed for integrating RAID/SATA drivers (thanks to jdeboeck for the inspiration ) so as to avoid user error. I've figured out using the batches from jdeboeck's zip file how to remove entries from txtsetup.sif (and it worked flawlessly), but I haven't figured out (more importantly) how to add keys to txtsetup.sif.

Basically, I need to search out a key in txtsetup.sif (for example, [sCSI]), then add entries underneath it. I know I can use the echo command to add the entries once the key is found, but there inlies the problem. Any ideas?

why not just make a new section? In general, you can make a new section in txtsetup.sif and it'll be used during setup. You don't have to use the section used in txtsetup.sif

so if I were to add another section to txtsetup.sif with a [sCSI] header, it wouldn't mess anything up? If that's the case, things are greatly simplified

[Blyster]

correct. Aditional sections with the same heading can be used with no problem. i.e. Having two seperate instances of the [sCSI] heading will work

well that's some nice info to have . It looks like I have a weekend project now
