* 8B. INSTALLING THE WINDOWS* XP INF FILES PRIOR TO
* OS INSTALLATION
************************************************************
NOTE: The Windows* XP OEM Preload Kit distribution CD contains
a setup directory with all the base operating system
setup files and installation programs (WINNT.EXE and
WINNT32.EXE).
The name of the directory may vary depending on the
distribution CD (e.g., \I386\).
1. Create the following directory structure under the
<WINXP Setup Directory>:
\$OEM$\$$\INF
2. Copy the Windows* XP INF files from
<INF Extract Directory>\XXXX\WinXP to the directory
created in Step 1 above:
<WINXP Setup Directory>\$OEM$\$$\INF
NOTE: XXXX is the directory name for the chipset of
interest. Refer to Section 8 for more details.
3. Create the following directory structure under the
<WINXP Setup Directory>:
\$OEM$\$1\drivers\IntelINF
4. Copy the Windows* XP INF files AND the catalog files
(.CAT) from <INF Extract Directory>\XXXX\WinXP to the
directory created in Step 4 above:
<WINXP Setup Directory>\$OEM$\$1\drivers\IntelINF
NOTE: XXXX is the directory name for the chipset of
interest. Refer to Section 8 for more details.
5. Either modify the default Windows* XP installation
answer file, UNATTEND.TXT, located in <WINXP Setup
Directory>, or create a customized answer file. The
answer file must include the following information:
[Unattended]
OemPreinstall = Yes
OemPnPDriversPath="drivers\IntelINF"
A sample answer file for preloading the Intel(R) Chipset
Software Installation utility files is available:
<INF Extract Directory>\XXXX\WinXP\INFAnswr.TXT
If you are a computer manufacturer, refer to the Microsoft*
Windows* XP Guide to Unattended Setup for more information
about Windows* XP answer files and unattended installations.
For more information about the \$OEM$ folder, refer to the
Microsoft Windows* XP OEM Preinstallation Kit (OPK)
User Guide. If you are not a manufacturer, refer to the Microsoft
Windows* XP Deployment Guide.
6. Run "WINNT.EXE /u:<answer file name> /s:<WINXP Setup
Directory>" to install Windows* XP.
Driverspack must detect it or not ??
