IBM ServeRAID-5i Ultra320 SCSI controller drivers

[Yokozuna]

I am sure the answer is here somewhere but I am having trouble locating. Can you please help ?

I am trying to incorporated IBM ServeRAID-5i Ultra320 SCSI controller drivers into an unattended CDROM build but I am currently having no joy !

I can get things to work if I press the F6 key during startup and adding the floppy disk containing the drivers but can't get it to work unattended.

I have placed the following files:

txtsetup.oem

oemsetup.inf

nfrdci03.dll

nfrd960.sys

ibmnfrd.cat

into the following paths:

$OEM$\$1\drv\SCSI

$OEM$\textmode

I have modified my winnt.sif file with the following:

[Unattended]

OemPreinstall=Yes

OemPnPDriversPath="drv\scsi

I think you prolly set a wrong directory in your winnt.sif

According to your earlier mentioned path structure, change the OemPnPDriversPath-direction in the winnt.sif file into:

OemPnPDriversPath="$1\drv\SCSI"

Maybe this helps?!

woah woah woah! I just saw this post. It looks like you are trying to do a Method 2 (M2) style driver install. My2001 has a new thread (here) with links to the 3 known methods of adding SATA/RAID/SCSI drivers to an unattended install. M1&M3 are more widely used than M2 and you may be able to find someone else who already has this driver working with these other methods.

I encourage you to try M2! I have a guide posted here. If you are trying to use it I can already see that you have a problem with your [MassStorageDrivers] entry in your winnt.sif. It does not list your CD-ROM drive and that will cause a BSOD after your first installation reboot. Also you have not copied your files into all of the neccesary locations (again please see my guide).

I hope this helps. I am currently on a trip but I will try to respond to any M2 related questions as quickly as possible.
