I still haven't had any luck with the Driverpacks on this, although I haven't tried the 10.07...  I added the Intel XP driver in in pebuilder\drivers\net -- and then went back to the prior 10.05 (current at the time, vs. the pre-release from @mr_smartepants listed above).  It works on the Latitude E6410 (Intel 82577LM), but I'm at a loss to explain how or why (and I was *sure* I tested it this way before, when i was was working on the Precision M4500, also an Intel 82577LM, which prompted my initial post).

Give that a try and see if it works...

I sto...  Borrowed a Latitude E6410 (from a company exec, no less), which has exactly the same Intel 82577LM ethernet chip (same exact hardware ID's from the device manager, all 4 lines, as the Precision M4500 that I don't have in front of me but which prompted me to start this thread).

It doesn't work with BartPE, same error, "Unable to install network adaptors".

I'm guessing Intel simply hasn't released an update that provides the WinPE drivers for this chip?  Why exactly does PE use different drivers anyway, that makes no sense to me, a linux guy...  :-p

Interestingly, the Precision M6500, which is in the same family as the M4500, has a Broadcom 57xx ethernet chip, which works great using the current LAN DP, whereas the M4500 that I'm having problems with (and a number of other newly released notebooks) has the Intel 82577LM that I haven't been able to make work...

Just thought I'd share...

I noticed that a new LAN pack was released, so I tried using that (stock)...  No change.

extracted DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_10051.7z to a temporary folder.  I copied the .inf from <tempfolder>\D\L\I\RIS\e1k5132.zip\e1k5132.inf (NOTE change in path, you said RIS_INF but all I found was RIS) to <tempfolder>\D\L\I\e1k5132.inf, overwriting the one that was there before.  Created new DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_100601.7z containing the modified D\ and DriverPack_LAN_wnt5_x86-32.ini, and moved that into place alongside the old.  DPs_BASE UpdateChecker says "Where did you get that?" (hahah, nice touch).  slipstream'd, and re-built BartPE, no errors reported.

No love, BartPE reports "Unable to install network adaptors".

Yes, correct, affirmative...  I'm not trying to use WLAN (although the WLAN pack does support the on-board controller, its just that bartpe seems to lack the ability to manage it).  I'm trying to get the gig-E ethernet working, which is the 82577LM controller.

I have the most recent driverpacks, LAN 10.05, no dice.  It does see the Intel wi-fi card, but BartPE doesn't let me set wireless params such as SSID, WPA auth, etc, so that doesn't help.  Any diag info I can send you?

As far as the INF, I found the one to extract, but, being a noob, don't know where to copy it as the 'standard INF'.  Can you provide a bit more info?
