Is there an easy way for me to include these drivers in my OEMtextsetup and still keep the Bashrat Mass-storage drivers?]]>
I did find some info on doing unattended installs.

This is a big problem if you are assembling a band new computer or just bought a new hard drive (and are using the on-board SATA) and don't have an existing Windows XP installation to fall back on.
As a matter of fact, I just did assemble a brand-new system with an Intel board and Intel SATA-RAID (installing the OS on a RAID-0 array) and did not encounter any issues whatsoever installing on that machine with my UWXPCD.
Maybe it only affects specific Intel boards?
]]>OK, I'll try again.
There is a problem with the mass storage driver pack and how retail "boxed" Intel boards see the text install drivers while using method 2.
You can take a look here and see. Item number two is A LOT more than just the chipset inf drivers like it used to be.
To get to the drivers you have to do a command line extraction with the (-a-a) flags

Is there a way to install them in silent mode (along with the rest of my Bashrat mass-storage drivers) without ruining the rest of the mass storage drivers and if so, can anyone point me to some directions?

]]>Better use code tags....
That, and snip off the legal stuff.
If anything we only care about new features and bug fixes
