Re: Choose DriverPacks during (attended) Installation (49 replies, posted in Software)
if you were going to spend some time on this you could even write your GUI so that you could select from multiple versions of a pack too...
I see real potential to this being a cool feature of an attended install.
and I have been considering adding attended setup as a platform.
We have had several requests for attended support, for various different reasons.
It does seem to be a logical extention of what we do and you have added yet another reason to support it.
When I add attended installation platform it seem resonable that multiboot should also be addressed (attended or not boot option)
Bâshrat the Sneaky's long term goals include adding a make ISO option from the GUI.
if that were added and attended installs were suported then a multiboot option would be the next logical step...
Thanks for your feedback.
From your original post is was not clear what was needed or why it was needed.
Now it is crystal clear on both What and Why and I agree that this could be very helpful.
although i must say i would rather fixe the packs so that this feature is not ever necessary
thanks a million
Jeff

yes... that would be easy and effective
we use autoit for DriverPacks but you can use whatever you're comfortable with.

1 third party driver packs - you are a third party therefore you are the author. (or could be)
2 you posted a driver - Implied, you want it supported... Yes you asked...
3 I am sorry... We want you to feel welcome. Jake was just trying to help you...
Feedback makes DriverPacks better and you provided that. Thank You for participating.
Jakes attitude is understandable
- you gave the impression that you think your time is somehow more valuable than his.

Re: Choose DriverPacks during (attended) Installation (49 replies, posted in Software)
presetup.cmd is the only way to deal with what you want to do.
there are no other opportunitys to stop the windows installation prior to DriverPacks.

Re: Choose DriverPacks during (attended) Installation (49 replies, posted in Software)
This would require editing presetup.cmd.
to accept user input and branch you could add a
SET /p Variable=
help yourself...
PS since we support unattended installs, adding a stop for user input is not in keeping with our goals.
This will not be a feature - unless we add attended installs as a platform in the future.

Re: Choose DriverPacks during (attended) Installation (49 replies, posted in Software)
Drivers are only installed for devices that exist in the machine...
I don't want to to include WLAN/SATA drivers because the computer where I'm installing windows doesn't have WLAN neither SATA
If you dont have any wireless adapters in your machine then no WLAN drivers will be installed...
all of the drivers are not installed, they are just made available to windows setup.
only the drivers that are neccessary for a machine are used the rest are ignored.
So it would seem that DriverPacks does exactly what you want right out of the box.

Re: DPInst with DriverPacks on network repository (130 replies, posted in Universal Imaging)
so where do we go from here...
M1 with KTD? makes the most sense IMHO.
Just thought of somthing that is just crazy enough to work... (I am a wild and crazy guy!)
create a master with two partitions.
set KTD to the second partion (IE D:\)
after the destination machine enumerates delete the second partion.
If you need to add or update hardware simply map the network driver to the second partitions drive letter. (IE D:\)
in this way you can have your cake and eat it too...
PS with the average size of most HDD's these days a 1 gig partition will not be missed

Re: SigmaTel STAC9205 (23 replies, posted in Software)
if you use DriverPacks base to add the packs this should have been done for you...
if you are useing xp slipstreamed with SP3 this is included with sp3...
since you did not tell us what you did or give any details i can not give you a good answer.
(always provide good details see read before you post in my signature and tell us how you did it)
what i am sure of is HDA is a microsoft patch and not a driver...

Re: [IMPL] Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family (22 replies, posted in DriverPack Chipset)
see you guys always compalining about wanting the latest drivers in the packs then they cause instability.
that is why we say dont ask for them. We must test them first
i will take stable over current every time...
which is not to say we don't want to be current. We do.
just let some other poor shlub work out the bugs for us first ;P
Then we add them... after they are tested and known good .
this is the same reason we do not include beta or leaked drivers.
let us know what you did to resolve this so we can update the packs for everyone.
Thanks for reporting the issues it makes DriverPacks better for everone.
you guys are DriverPacks heros of the day...

Re: Got LAN DriverPack working on BartPE (75 replies, posted in BartPE - UBCD4Win - WinPE)
Hi Xeon2050,
I was furiously codeing the remaining packs for BartPE last week
due to several OP's being very disresectful of our time on the forum
i found it neccessary to put the code down till my attitude improves.
I need testers, and driverpack editors...
i have written the code
now all the packs need thier INI's updated
and the whole mess needs to be tested / tweaked / debugged.
so... would you like to help?
a few people willing to help out would be very motivating for me personaly

Re: [SLVD] Installer presented with an option regarding KTD (1 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
this would be quite easy for you to do yourself
just write a script that edits or swaps the finisher ini file after it is copied to %systemdrive%
IE put your script right before the call to the finisher (ROE or GUIrunonce).
Welcome to DriverPacks

Re: I wrote a new Presetup.cmd file. (9 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
i belive you can accomplish this quite easily by useing svcpack.inf
svcpack.inf runs at t-13 (right after cmdlines.txt normaly would at t-12)
You can call a script from svcpack.inf as long as that script is in \I386\svcpack\
so... add a script or exe before any other existing entries IE
[SetupHotfixesToRun]
MyScript.cmd
assumeing that \I386\svcpack\MyScript.cmd exists you could parse the commands that would normaly be in cmdlines.txt at approximately the same time during setup.
