Hi, Thanks for the prompt replies. I seem to have everything sorted out now. There was nothing wrong with my unattended.txt and txtsetup.oem files, I just hadn't updated by distribution point and rebuilt my boot CD after adding the extra drivers for the raid card. Stupid me! is it friday yet? Anyway, thanks for the assistance. tward

Its a Dell Precision T3400

Hi, I'm trying to configure BDD 2007 to do a LTI and have an adaptec raid card installed. I've added drivers for SATA drives as well as the RAID drivers to my $OEM$\TEXTMODE\ folder and modified the txtsetup.oem file in that folder to contain information for all the drivers. When I copy this directory to a floppy disk and run windows installation manually, I can manually load the drivers and windows PE will find my Raid array. However, when BDD tries to run Diskpart at the start of the LTI process, it does not have the raid array in it's list if disks. If I change my Diskpart.txt file to select a SATA disk that's not part of the raid array the deployment is successful, however I'd like to install the OS on the raid array. Any thoughts? I'll eventually need to include these files in my sysprep.inf as well so I can capture them in my image, but for now I'd be happy with my raid array being available to create a base WIM with. Below are is the relevant section of my unattended.txt file and my txtsetup.oem file. Any help you be much appreciated.
