It's normal: this is my fault !
How stupid I am: I send the wrong instructions related to content of
site/config.pl !!!!!!!
The right hints for site/config.pl are:
## Windows drivers scanning: uncomment to DISABLE its usage
#$u->{'_temp'}->{'scan_windrivers'} = '';
## Windows drivers scanning: drivers collection root path:
$u->{'_temp'}->{'scan_windrivers_path'} = "z:\site\win_drivers" ;
## Windows drivers scanning: use updated version of ntx5-install
$u->{'_meta'}->{'ntinstall_cmd'} = '/z/site/nt5x-install' ;
## Windows drivers scanning:
## howto exclude PCI_CLASSID Ethernet Controller (0x0200)
## from search of Windows Drivers scanning
#$u->{'_temp'}->{'scan_windrivers_options'} = '-c 0200' ;
## Windows drivers scanning: where to store matching driver(s)
## (relative to /c/ ):
#$u->{'_temp'}->{'scan_windrivers_dest'} = 'drv-scan' ;
Please note that once you patched install.pl, the scanner is enabled:
you can DISABLE it if needed by setting
$u->{'_temp'}->{'scan_windrivers'} to ''
I will send an updated version of search-win-drivers with updated
instructions.
Many apologies,
