Xun Ni: Please include pointer to the xml and the log files for the DC build for further examination. Without those data, we cannot help to identify what the problem is.

I create the TI image using the example xml, only modify the publisher, comment out the 'entire' package. is there any other point which need to modify to solve this problem?

All install images, whether AI, TI or live CD, will have the drivers you included when you built the image using DC. That is, when you boot these images, the drivers will exist in RAM and the system will run with them. When you install from TI and live CD, the installer copies the files of the running system onto the target, so the target disk will have the same set of drivers. When you install using AI, the target disk is populated using pkg(5) from the repositories specified in the AI manifest. Be sure and set up the AI manifest so that the installer can find your drivers' packages/repository as well as the repository for the standard packages. NOTE: the AI manifest here is different than the manifest used to build the AI install image. This manifest is used *by* the installer, and is not to be confused with the manifest used by DC to build the image containing the installer. > according to your word, if i want to have the updated driver package > in the ramdisk, i must create the Ti image? No, but the process of installing from a TI image seems simpler and just as effective for you as installing from an AI image.
