OK, I have a bloated perl script that do the trick: scan PCI devices 
(via lspci), compare with content of win drivers "database" and return a 
list of matching folders (verbose output also list the non-matching 
device(s) ;-)
My windows drivers database is not stored below /z/os/<os>/ (of course), 
but into /z/win_drivers/ .

Now I have to integrate this script call into install.pl and copy these 
matching folders on the hard driver, below /c/$ARCH/$oem$/$1/drivers/. , 
and update OemPnPDriversPath content .... how can I do this ?

As far as I understand, content of os/<os>/$ARCH/$oem$/$1/ is "brute 
force" copied via the used installation method, eg dosemu or 
nt5x-install: no selection is done on its content.

That means in my case I'll have to update all of these methods, since 
the list of drivers is generated on run-time and its initial location is 
not below os/<os>/$ARCH/$oem$/$1/ but have to copied onto hard drive 
(into /c/$ARCH/$oem$/$1/drivers/) ?

Did I miss some functionality in install.pl and libs to fill $oem$/ 
content or do I have to modify the install.pl & co. to provide it ?

Thanks for your return.
