Travis,

If you're not using a lot of unique drivers, you can put them in
/install/os/winxxxx/$oem$/$1 (see
http://unattended.sourceforge.net/step-by-step.php#step5, "Add device
drivers").

If you have a lot of drivers and can afford the space on the target
machines, DriverPacks is the easiest way to go (see
http://www.mail-archive.com/unattended-info@lists.sourceforge.net/msg06842.html).

You can use the packs they provide, which have drivers for just about
every common HW configuration, but it will probably take up about
500MB on each machine post-install if you enable "Keep The Drivers".

What I've done is create my own "3rd Party" driver pack with drivers
for only the hardware that I manage (Dell Latitudes & OptiPlexes from
2002-2008).  A bit painstaking to assemble and still takes up ~150MB,
but worth it, IMO.

Alternatively, if you're up to the learning curve (I wasn't) you can
figure out unattended.csv
(http://unattended.sourceforge.net/dynamic.php) and write some
conditional scripts that will update the OemPnPDriversPath for each
configuration you have.  Or if you're doing one machine at a time, you
can create separate "unattended.txt" files for each config (e.g.
un-pe600.txt, un-pe1950.txt) and manually change /site/untattended.txt
to symlink to the one you're installing at the time.
