RIS boot PE with Marvell NIC


whatsyourhandle

Recommended Posts

I have a bootable PE install using RIS. This works fine for intel nics etc.

I have some new machines (intel D915GUX MB) that have Marvell Yukon NICs that refuse to boot with this install :(

I have tried copying the drivers manually into their locations with no success. I have tried RogueSpears autoRIS drivers aswell with no sucess.

I do not want to rebuild the PE if i can help it. I am quite new to this so the more specific the better :)

Any help is much appreciated :)

see http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=48392&hl=yukon

search here or microsoft to add nic drivers to the oem$ directories as well. Been covered many times here before.

edoit: or

http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...$oem$

That *will* help for GUI-mode drivers (34 mins into install when it prompts for domain name, etc.) but won't help OP with his problem, which is that appropriate drivers don't (apparently) exist in i386.

OP, add appropriate drivers for your card into i386\system32\drivers folder. Put the .sys file into the \drivers folder as appropriate. Reboot & try again.

What I normally do in the event of the driver error in the initial phase of the windows installation is

1. copy the drivers to the i386 folder of the approriate RIS image

2. Open the command prompt

3. Stop the binlsvc service by typing "net stop binlsvc"

4. Start the service by typing "net start binlsvc"

5. Exit the command prompt

If the correct inf and other files needed were copied the RIS image should now start to work

If not try having a look on the net I know some cards like the intel pro 100/1000 have dirvers specially

written for RIS and without the RIS drivers the system just will not install

Good luck
