2) Unpack all the files from the SoftPaq. Unpacking a Softpaq file uses this command line: • Sp#####.exe -e -f -s • Where o SP####.exe is the Softpaq to unpack. o -e is a run time switch that overrides installation of the component inside the softpaq. o -f is a run time switch that overrides the default path set at build time. o -s instructs the package to unpack in silent mode skipping the welcome, license and directory screens. • Example: C:\tmp\sp99999.exe -e -fc:\sp99999 -s • This will unpack the files needed to c:\sp99999. 3) Browse to the location of the Intel storage drivers on your system. Using the example above that would be c:\sp99999\Winall\Driver (for XP32) or c:\sp99999\Winall\Driver64 (for XP64). Copy the files in that directory to removable media (i.e. floppy disk, usbkey). a. iaahci.cat b. iaahci.inf c. iastor.cat d. iastor.inf e. iastor.sys f. txtsetup.oem 4) Copy all the files above to the following path on the distribution point (on the RIS server): RemoteInstall\Setup\\Images\\i386 5) Also copy the same files (from step 3, above) to RemoteInstall\Setup\\Images\\$oem$\$1\drivers\sata 6) Open RemoteInstall\Setup\\Images\\i386 \txtsetup.sif in Notepad. Go to the end of the file. There will be several blank lines. 1) Move the cursor up a few lines. This is necessary because there is a hidden marker at the end of the file. 2) Add the following lines to the txtsetup.sif file. For the HardwareIdsDatabase, multiple device IDs can be added here using any of the SATA Device IDs obtained from the section of this document titled "How to Obtain SATA Device IDs". Simply replace the [SATA Device IDs] with the Device ID you received from the system. Only one is needed, but multiple IDs can be inserted for additional support of multiple SATA Device Controllers.

2)
Unpack all the files from the SoftPaq. Unpacking a Softpaq file uses this command line:
Sp#####.exe -e -f<path> -s
Where
o
SP####.exe is the Softpaq to unpack.
o
-e is a run time switch that overrides installation of the component inside the
softpaq.
o
-f<Path> is a run time switch that overrides the default path set at build time.
o
-s instructs the package to unpack in silent mode skipping the welcome,
license and directory screens.
Example: C:\tmp\sp99999.exe -e -fc:\sp99999 -s
This will unpack the files needed to c:\sp99999.
3)
Browse to the location of the Intel storage drivers on your system.
Using the example above
that would be c:\sp99999\Winall\Driver (for XP32) or c:\sp99999\Winall\Driver64 (for
XP64).
Copy the files in that directory to removable media (i.e. floppy disk, usbkey).
a.
iaahci.cat
b.
iaahci.inf
c.
iastor.cat
d.
iastor.inf
e.
iastor.sys
f.
txtsetup.oem
4)
Copy all the files above to the following path on the distribution point (on the RIS server):
RemoteInstall\Setup\<Language>\Images\<Dir_name>\i386
5)
Also copy the same files (from step 3, above) to
RemoteInstall\Setup\<Language>\Images\<Dir_name>\$oem$\$1\drivers\sata
6)
Open
RemoteInstall\Setup\<Language>\Images\<Dir_name>\i386 \txtsetup.sif in
Notepad.
Go to the end of the file. There will be several blank lines.
1)
Move the cursor up a few lines. This is necessary because there is a hidden marker at the end
of the file.
2)
Add the following lines to the txtsetup.sif file.
For the HardwareIdsDatabase, multiple device
IDs can be added here using any of the SATA Device IDs obtained from the section of this
document titled “How to Obtain SATA Device IDs”.
Simply replace the
[SATA Device IDs]
with the Device ID you received from the system.
Only one is needed, but multiple IDs can be
inserted for additional support of multiple SATA Device Controllers.
