I have no problem at all with the Broadcom B57xx driver.

 

Could it be that you have not add the correct driver files to your server?

 

I have configured my installation server as follows:

 

Create folders $OEM$, $1, drivers, nic and b57 inside the I386 folder as in the following example:

 

Z:\os\xpsp2enu\I386\$OEM$\$1\drivers\nic\b57

 

Put the following files from the Broadcom B57xx driver pack into the b57 folder;

 

- b57win32.cat

- b57win32.inf

- b57xp32.sys

 

The next time you boot a computer from the linuxboot CD a new option with the Broadcom B57 driver will be displayed in the ‘Please choose drivers(s) to add.’

 

This works for me on all Dell computers with Broadcom B57xx NIC:s.

Subject: [Unattended] Broadcom driver implementation in unattended?

 

Hi,

 

i’m using unattended since some months and i’m very satisfied with it. Good work!

But now i’ve a little problem. Broadcom released new B57xx-gigabit drivers and i can’t use the unattended

installation with the new computers. I tried it with the „universal 3com“ driver on the linux boot disc, but the „undis3c“

command doesn’t work. It gives me the answer „could not find kernel image: undis3c“. Now my question: Is it possible to

implement the new broadcom driver to the linux boot disc and how can i run the setup after choosing „undis3c“ from the driverlist?

 

Thanks for your help!
