Sorry i stuffed that email up
I commented out
my @selected_dirs = multi_choice ('Please choose driver(s) to add.',
sort @pnp_driver_dirs);
my $ret = join ';', @selected_dirs;
so it looks like this
#my @selected_dirs = multi_choice ('Please choose driver(s) to add.',
# sort @pnp_driver_dirs);
#my $ret = join ';', @selected_dirs;
and then added this line below it:
my $ret = join ';', @pnp_driver_dirs;

I dunno if this will help but i force unattended to copy ALL my drivers.
I dont bother selecting 1 directory for OEM i just copy the whole damn lot.
In the install.pl in the dosbin directory there is this function:
# Which directories to include in OemPnPDriversPath
sub ask_oem_pnp_drivers_path () {
my $media_obj = Unattend::WinMedia->new ($u->{'_meta'}->{'OS_media'});
my @pnp_driver_dirs = $media_obj->oem_pnp_dirs (1);
# No driver directories means no drivers path
scalar @pnp_driver_dirs > 0
or return undef;
print "...found some driver directories.\n";
#my @selected_dirs = multi_choice ('Please choose driver(s) to add.',
# sort @pnp_driver_dirs);
#my $ret = join ';', @selected_dirs;
# Setup does not like empty OemPnPDriversPath
$ret =~ /\S/
or undef $ret;
return $ret;
}
I simple replaced:
my $ret = join ';', @selected_dirs;
with
my $ret = join ';', @pnp_driver_dirs;
This returns all directories.

Subject: [Unattended] Intel NIC not getting installed even with
DriverPack
I'm trying to get a stack of Sony Vaio laptops installed via Unatteneded.
This is the first time I've run into the situation where the NIC card
isn't detected after XP boots (I install via the Linux PXE boot, which
works fine).
After reading through some archives, I noticed a post about
DriverPacks, so I got and installed those. It appears that worked
correctly (I see the $OEM$ dirs and such). However, after
reinstalling, same deal.
The driver from the DriverPack *does* work if I drop it onto a flash
drive, so this is definately something about the install process.
I'm guessing I'm either not correctly listing the OEMPnPDriversPath or
its not copying or something. I even went so far as to find the file
DriverPack changes and copy that path into my Unattended unattend.txt.
Anyone successfully use the DriverPacks w/ Unattended that might be
able to offer me a clue as to whats up?
Thanks!
Brent
I had the same problem with Driver Packs, as the total length of the
OEMPnPPath was greater than the 1024 character limit for the DOS
portion of the setup, as they are often created for integrating into a
CD which has a 4096 character limit.
I solved it by copying all the drivers into a single folder for each
type, so my Drivers folder has Network, Audio, Video etc folders, and
all the drivers are in that folder. It also helps save on some space,
as some files are duplicated in the driver packs too.
