IAA Raid Edition unattended Install


Recommended Posts

Posted

Has anyone done this before? A lot of info is to be found on http://support.intel.com/support/chipsets/iaa_raid/

Including this: http://support.intel.com/support/chipsets/.../unattended.htm

// Insert the lines below into the UNATTEND.TXT file (alias winnt.sif)

[MassStorageDrivers]

"Intel® 82801ER SATA RAID Controller" = OEM

[OEMBootFiles]

iaStor.inf

iaStor.sys

iaStor.cat

Txtsetup.oem

Place iaStor.inf, iaStor.sys, iaStor.cat, and Txtsetup.oem in the following folder:

<SystemRoot>:\i386\$OEM$\Textmode

What i'm wondering about is the "Textmode" folder. How does it know it can find the stuff there?

I should mention that this is the unattended method for the "F6" install, so you don't need to do use the floppy disk with the pre-installation RAID drivers during the XP installation.

The textmode folder is autmaticaly copied over to the hard disk during install.

However that doc is wrong the actual path should be

\$OEM$\Textmode

in windows 2000 and xp, for NT it is correct.
