yey, just tried it by adding the space to the i386 file and it worked. The output file did not include the space. Now what? Does that mean some ini file in the DPbase or driverpack is wrong? Nice job you were right.

why is there a space between "symmpi" and ".sys". It looks normal in the error window. Is that normal output or is that the problem? I looked in the i386 source directory and I did find the .sys file but no .sy_

I have not modified a thing. I am using 8.05 though.
Literally, I dumbed it down to.
Slipstream SP3 from source CD. (nlite and ryanvm) I tried addon packs, but thought they might have been the problem. So I tried from scratch.
DPBASE Massstorage only.
I have not tried a manual slipstream of SP3.

Hello,
First time user here. Did quite a bit of research. Last resort to post this.
Objective: Dell OEMSP3CD patched with drivers.
I receive a "Failed to CAB compress" "...\I386\symmpi.sys to ...\I386\symmpi.sy_."
Error.
I have tried integrating with method 2. No QSC
Source: Dell SP2OEMCD
I tried Twice on each of the following platforms
*Server 2008 (thought maybe Vista slipstream issue)
*WXPSP3 (maybe more bad luck)
*WXPSP2 (...if you don't succeed)
On each platform , I tried once using RVM and once using Nlite to slipstream SP3 ONLY. I deleted the output after each failed attempt at integrating the driverpack.
I tried re-downloading the driver pack.
I tried setting permissions and even creating a network share with all permissions. Interestingly enough. I do at times get the read only attribute mysteriously back on the Server 2008 machine. However, I did try it on two other machines.
Thanks for your assistance.
