No, no you misunderstand, or maybe I'm not clear enough. I'm wishing I hadn't
mentioned this in the first place - everything is working correctly. I had
hard-coded ntinstall_cmd into my unattend.txt files to avoid the prompt that
otherwise occurred, this prevented your "$u->{'_meta'}->{'ntinstall_cmd'} =
'/z/site/nt5x-install' " from working. I chose to change my hard-coded entry to
the new path, I could have removed it entirely and then your code would have
worked.

Alas, this was one of the things I tried yesterday. I just double-checked and
commented that line out and run it again, and once again search-win-drivers.pl
appeared not to run, and I ended up with scan_windrivers_dest_map = "" and no
drivers being copied.
Running search-win-drivers.pl manually (even without the -d) matches all the
devices to drivers.
One thing I am curious about is:
## 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' ;
Why is one path in unix format and the other in windows format? I see that when
you read scan_windrivers_path in install.pl that you use dos_to_host to convert
it, but why?
