This is arguably a better plan, since what you are really doing is creating a single disk with multiple drivers on it... I will give this a shot too. No good. Jordan Hi, maybe I got this all wrong, so please bear with me!! I just read the above mail in the daily digest. I once had a FastTrack-Controller. just as a thought: I have had a Promise FastTrack 100-Controller and it would not work with the standard Windows-Drivers. When installing manually, you had to press F6 during the boot process and add the drivers disk in order to have access to the disks. I don't remember Promise being bought by someone (like Adaptec), so I assume the drivers are still from fasttrack and are still called FASTTRAK.xyz. IMHO you are trying the wrong drivers here. I've just checked their website and downloaded the (FastTrack 100-)Drivers and there ist an txtsetup.oem that lists the drivers. Maybe it helps. Sorry if this is way off. I'm not sure I should have written it myself... ;-) cheers wolf

I haven't actually tried installing with the floppy version though. I tried installing from CD with the floppy. Doesn't find any hard disks. Woops. Yep, there are indeed some Promise drivers on Intel's page. I'll give it a go with the other disks, and try to get the unattended thinger to work /after/ getting the normal floppy to work. *sigh* Thanks, Wolf. :) Jordan --- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.

I manually added a [MassStorageDrivers] and [OEMBootFiles] section to the unattend.txt that is in my site directory. I hadn't realized that install.pl would scan them and create those sections. Let me try removing them and get back to you.

You might try changing the second one to \disk2. Although since neither of those files really exist (do they?), I am not sure this will help. Yes, that file exists (it's the one from the 3ware disk, actually) and just has some human-readable info about the disk. I have also tried it with two entries, using \disk1 and \hraidsk1 (which came on the Adaptec disk). No dice.
