hello ben,

above are really good instructions - but i cannot add any intel mass storage drivers into bdd 2007 and PE2.0 "not an issue for Windows PE 2.0 as BDD 2007 will automatically integrate the drivers for you" --- how can i do that? iam not able to get my machine booting - it always gets a bluescreen. can you give me some instructions for adding those drivers in bdd 2007? i have tried to put it into the "out of the box drivers" and i have tried to put it into the "$oem$" folder - doesn´t work - can you help me? i have also tried to add this driver in the unattendet installation - while copying the process tells me that some files are missing - it cannot find the driver - so where to copy those files - thanks in advance. ps. teched 2007 with bdd 2007 was great!

Do you have a problem with the client operating system or during Windows PE? If it is the client OS then is it XP or Vista?

i want to install windowsxp sp2 over the bdd - these intel drivers are for the mass storage device - normaly you can add them by pressing F6 while installing xp - without them xp cannot find the harddisks. where can i put these drivers so that bdd automatically integrates the drivers - or do i have to include them into the unattendet.txt - when yes where should i copy this drivers so that xp can find them during the installation?. $OEM$ folder or on a other side in the distribution folder? thanks

Hi Martin,

I have just created a new post that covers this issue here:

Hi Ben,

I tried to follow your procedure and couldnt make it work.

From what i can see, the txtsetup.sif file on the ISO file generated by BDD is the default WinPE 2005 one and not the customized one that I have stored in the "Win PE customizations" folder although the drivers from the same folder are actually copied.

It seems that the BDD wizard doesnt overwrite WinPE files but only copy non-already-existing files from the "Win PE customizations" folder.

I guess a workaround would be to modify the WinPE 2005 source files directly but it kinda ruins the added value of the "Win PE customizations" folder.

Do you have any idea on this issue?

Regards,

Johan

Hi Johan,

I have seen this problem before. It is caused by the copy process thinking that the file included in the Windows 2003 source folder is newer than the one you have updated. Try updating the txtsetup.sif file in the windows 2003 i386 folder and then rebuild the CD. That has worked for me.

Thanks,

Ben

Thanks a lot for the follow-up Ben, I replaced the txtsetup.sif file with my customized one in the Windows 2003 SP1 source folder and indeed it did the trick. That's a nasty bug.

Sorry for the late feedback and thanks again.

Hi everyone,

I've tried to add the new SATA controller driver to my image. I'm not sure I understand correctly all of this post.

I want to add the driver to a custom XP wim I made.

I edit my WIM with imagex.exe. Then I replace the existing SATA controler driver with the new one. Then I edit my sysprep.inf that goes like this :

[SysprepMassStorage]

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2652&CC_0106=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iaahci.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653&CC_0106=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iaahci.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C1&CC_0106=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iaahci.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5&CC_0106=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iaahci.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2681&CC_0106=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iaahci.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2821&CC_0106=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iaahci.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2652&CC_0104=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iastor.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C3&CC_0104=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iastor.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2682&CC_0104=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iastor.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C6&CC_0104=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iastor.inf

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2822&CC_0104=%systemdrive%\Drivers\MASS\1\iastor.inf

I always get the BSOD.

Is it possible to edit a custom wim? Or I need to do a new build for this to work?

Thanks for any suggestions

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

Unfortunately you need to recreate your master image.

You also need to make sure that the line BuildMassStorage=YES is in the sysprep.inf file.

Thanks,

Ben

Regarding this statement...

This is not an issue for Windows PE 2.0 as BDD 2007 will automatically integrate the drivers for you. But with Windows PE 2004/2005 you must integrate the drivers yourself.

I'm trying to recreate my images using BDD 2007 instead of 2.5

When I was using 2.5 I was able to add the fix for the SATA controller driver in winpe 2004 and everything was working fine. Now with BDD 2007 using winpe 2.0, I have no clue on how to add this fix since the LiteTouchPE_x86 cd uses a wim file. I added all the drivers that I'm using including the iastor one in the Out-Of-Box Drivers and created my LiteTouchPE_x86.iso file. When I boot with this CD, it's booting great and injecting my drivers... But as soon that it try's to install XP, I get a Blue Screen.

Any tips you can give me ?? Thanks.

BenHunter — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 10:32:22 GMT

Hi Sebastien,

I have written another post that details this process, that should be what you are looking for:

http://blogs.technet.com/benhunter/archive/2007/07/12/bdd-2007-integrating-mass-storage-drivers-into-your-xp-image.aspx

The import thing to remember is that you need to inject the drivers into the image when you capture, not when you deploy it.

Thanks,

Ben

Sebastien Lemelin — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 21:26:08 GMT

I followed the steps but now I'm getting error messages that certain entries from my unattended file [MassStorageDrivers] doesn’t exist in the [scsi] section of the txtsetup.sif file...

Where exactly is this file and how can I modify it.

With 2.5 it was simple since the file was directly inside the iso file...

Hi Sebastien,

CAn you please send me a copy of you sysprep.inf file. I need that to help you troubleshoot. My email is ben dot hunter at microsoft dot com.

Hi Ben,

I do have problems doing a scripted install of w2k3 server with BDD on several machines (Dell Poweredge). Everything goes fine until after the second reboot: installation files are copied and present on C:. Then it reboots and I get "error loading operating system". However, everything seems to be in place: boot.ini ntldr $ls, $bt etc. I took the string from txtsetup.oem for the massstoragedriver and added it to the unattend.txt as well as the files required which I put in the textmode folder.. everything seems to be working until the system comes up to install.. I am confused.. Do you have any hints for me?

Thanks alot,

Jens

Ben,

Is this line a spelling error?

1. Open the file .\Distribution\Extra Files\txtsetup.si file using Notepad.

Shouldn't that be txtsetup.sif ?

re: BDD 2007 - Intel Mass Storage Drivers (iastor)

BenHunter — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 22:23:05 GMT

It is a typo good spotting. I must have put it in there to see if anyone is paying attention :).

It looks like you are the only one :)

I know that this doesn't probably belong in this thread. Please if not just address it to the right one.

Here is the problem. We are still on BDD2.5 and moving to Microsoft Deployment in the next few months. That being said we are now having a problem we never encountered before and not able to get any help anywhere. We are trying to creat an image for the new Dell T3400 and the GX755 and the BDD process starts installs the OS and on the first reboot always comes back with the following error: FILE \MININT\SYSTEM32\BIOSINFO.INF COULD NOT BE LOADED THE ERROR CODE IS 14 PRESS ANY KEY TO EXIT. No matter what we try we arent able to get past this error and we are running out of ideas.

Some of the changes we have done are as follows:

in the unattend\source\xppro\sp2\i386 we edited the txtsetup.sif and added the following lines

[HardwareIdsDatabase]

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2653 = "iaStor"

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C5 = "iaStor"

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C1 = "iaStor"

iaStor = "Intel(R) 631xESB/632xESB SATA AHCI Controller (Server/Workstation ESB2)"

iaStor = "Intel(R) ICH9 SATA AHCIController (Desktop ICH9R)"

[SourceDisksFiles]

iastor.sys = 1,,,,,,4_,4,1,,,1,4

we added the drivers in the textmode folder

also we edited the unattend.txt file to:

we have rem'ed out the lines in the sysprep.inf file but it still was working when the weren't removed.

Does this look right or are we doing something wrong with the way we are injecting the drivers into the source?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Paulo,

This blog post details how to inject drivers for WinPE not Windows XP. I would suggest that you have a look at the following post:

http://blogs.technet.com/benhunter/archive/2007/07/12/bdd-2007-integrating-mass-storage-drivers-into-your-xp-image.aspx

You will also find details about how to integrate drivers into the unattend.txt file in the comments.

re: BDD 2007 - Intel Mass Storage Drivers (iastor)

Marvin — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 04:00:05 GMT

I continue to have problems with this process and wonder if you could help to shed some light on what could possibly be a small oversight on my part? I've been posting all over the web so you may be familiar with this thread but if not here's a summary of what's happening:

I'm unable to deploy an LTI to a Dell PowerEdge 1950. Initially I would get the following error with the LTI:

ZTIERROR - Unhandled error returned by ZTIDiskpart: Illegal assignment (501)

Non-zero return code executing command "x:\Deploy\Tools\x86\TsmBootstrap.exe" /env:SAStart, rc= -214746259

I was given a link to this thread and have since performed the following:

1. Identified the percsas.sys and megasas.sys files for the PERC on this 1950 via the txtsetup.oem file.

Disk:

d2 = "DELL PERC5 and PERC6/CERC6 RAID Controller Driver (Server 2003 32 bit)", \percsas.sys, \

2. Added the following ID's to the txtsetup.sif file:

PCI\VEN_1028&DEV_0015&SUBSYS_1F011028 = "percsas"

PCI\VEN_1028&DEV_0015&SUBSYS_1F021028 = "percsas"

PCI\VEN_1028&DEV_0015&SUBSYS_1F031028 = "percsas"

PCI\VEN_1000&DEV_0060&SUBSYS_1F0A1028 = "percsas"

PCI\VEN_1000&DEV_0060&SUBSYS_1F0B1028 = "percsas"

PCI\VEN_1000&DEV_0060&SUBSYS_1F0C1028 = "percsas"

PCI\VEN_1000&DEV_0060&SUBSYS_1F0D1028 = "percsas"

PCI\VEN_1000&DEV_0060&SUBSYS_1F111028 = "percsas"

3. Created the following folder structure under \Distribution on the MD server:

\Extra files\i386\System32\Drivers

4. Copied the percsas.sys & megasas.sys files to the \Extra Files\i386\System32\Drivers folder.

5. Copied txtsetup.sif to the \Extra Files\i386 folder and copied the updated txtsetup.sif file back to the source direcotry.

6. Observed the following in the [SCSI.LOAD] section:

percsas = percsas.sys,5

percsas = percsas.sys,4

lsi_sas = lsi_sas.sys,4

7. Updated the deployment point to create the PE source files. Extra directory pointed to Distrbution\Extra files\

I now get the following error:

ZTIError - Unhandled error returned by ZTISerVariable: Invalid procedure call or argument (5)

Non-zero return code executing command "X:\Deploy\Tools\X86\TSMBootstrap.exe" /env:SAStart,rc = -2147467259

The BDD.log and LiteTouch.log files both say the same thing:

<![Log[ZTI ERROR - Non-zero return code by LiteTouch, rc = -2147467259 0x80004005]!>

What am I missing? Any responses appreciated.
