all of the back planes i am familiar with require trays or rails.
never seen one you could jsut stick a naked drive into - hot swappable...

If you use mass storage text mode support you don't have to hit f6...
As Isaid 3rd party DriverPack doesn't work for text mode support (and is why you have to hit f6)
that is why we have the mass storage textmode feature.
it's only 28 meg and supports over a thousand HDD controller types.
That means never haveing to hit f6 ever again...
PS if you insist that this is still to big the mass storage pack can be modified (yes we have heard of custom made)
see this thread for details. http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic. … 356#p17356

lol thanks guys i am going to release alpha versions more often... it keeps us in touch...
to reiterate - the only reason the alpha was leaked was to test the proxy functionality.
the rc2 version should be solid until i get rc3 ready for prime time...

Re: Just a silly post-integration question (6 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
most of us just add all the packs, windows setup will use and keep the individual drivers it needs and will then delete the drivers that were not used.
it is simple and effective, and has been in use for years with nearly perfect results. try it , you will like it.

the fix for mass was a side effect of what im working on for chipset.

Re: Testers Needed (76 replies, posted in News)
does your proxy server deny ping?
i am sure that i can fix this now... the clues are in the code above.
tell me if this picks up the settings automaticaly from IE and gets the list...
(try it without the /proxy: switch first)
link removed for PROXY test version. *edit...
changelog;
code modified to allow proxy ?
fixed unreported problem,
if base detects that it was run on a source before it will back out of all of its changes and restore original files.
currently the mass storage ini from the most current pack is used to restore original files from a previous slipstream of base.
if the list of skipped or replaced drivers changed then it would be possable that not all files would be restored.
Now we copy mass ini to i386 when adding textmode drivers then use that mass INI for restoreing original files before slipstreaming the current selections. this way the same list is used to reset / restore as was used to install.
Misc code cleanup...

Re: Testers Needed (76 replies, posted in News)
then i am unable to figure out what is wrong - the default for base is to import them from IE - HttpSetProxy(0)
as far as i know that method and this one are both setting the HttpSetProxy function correctly. autoit states that it only supports CERN proxy in the documentation... not sure if that helps or not

Re: Testers Needed (76 replies, posted in News)
yes the text file is used internaly to base both for installation and removal of the packs.
(removal if driverpacks is run a second time on the same source.)
@chiners
you ommitted the space after the commas in the above line... that might be signifigant.

Thx for yr prompt reply.
..and how stupid of me: When I extracted yr original Mass DriverPack, I wound up with a subdirectory under which I found the drivers and the .INI file. So when I compressed everything again, I did that including the new subdirectory. What I should have done is to just compress the drivers and the .ini file.
yes...
randronoth wrote:
One more question: when I throw out the Mass drivers that I don't need, does that make the skimmed down pack a 3rd party Pack? If so I have 2 further questions:
No it doesn't neccessarily make it a Third Party DP.
You have created a mass storage "lite" pack as long as you don't change the DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_ part of the file name. This way it is still a mass storage pack
make sure to increment the number following the name by one. so it is the same name but a higher version number
DriverPacks BASE will see the mass with the highest number as the newest version available and use it.

1. I seem to have read somewhere that a 3rd party driver pack cannot contain Mass Storage Drivers. True?
yes and no;
Yes, true, mass storage drivers in a third party pack will not be useful for finding a HDD to install windows. (the f6 function)
Mass storage text mode drivers will not be added from a third party pack.
Only the main mass storage pack is added to text mode.
---BartePE uses Mass-Storage textmode drivers.---
The main pack is editable, with a little instruction / help from us. Mass is one of the hardest packs to edit correctly.
however trimming it down is a lot easier than adding to it...
No, false, if you just need a mass storage driver for an external drive (not your primary boot drive) then you could use a third party driverpack.
randronoth wrote:
2. A scaled down version of the original Mass Driver Pack is functionally comparable to to the original pack - just that it has fewer drivers in it. One would think that it should behave just like your original Mass pack. True?
yes as long as you don't break the naming convention, or the .INI format, then this is a true statement.

Re: Testers Needed (76 replies, posted in News)
i still need you to please post your DPs_BASE.log so i may see if it was due to an incorrectly parsed space
That should not be the case since the comma is the delimiter.
the lines you list above just initialize variables they don't actually set any program settings. (IE $x=2 $y=5)
autoit uses the command --> HttpSetProxy ( mode [, "proxy:port" [, "username", "password"]] )
which is the funtion I pass the parameters to from the command line.
it is possable that you need to include your paramaters in quotes...
or i need to add code on my side to add the quotes...
Im going to edit my first post to reflect that ...
