Drivers for Precision M2800 didn't apply

Recommended Posts

I'm setting up a Dell Precision M2800. I injected the HDD and net drivers into the x86 boot image and got a message that some packages could not be updated. I did a PXE boot anyway, whcih succeeded (?) and the build finished successfully. Except that when it's all done, I log in and find that no devices have their proper drivers, including the network card.

 

During the build phase, I can bring up a command prompt and I do have an IP address. So my guess is that the network card was already in the boot image, thus prompting the "some packages could not be updated." But why does the driver not get loaded in Windows? Presumably if the network driver was present all the other drivers would update also.

 

I've looked through the smsts.log: where should I see WIndows drivers installing? I see the following errors, but I don't think they are relevant:

 

Regularly:

 

(__hrMethodRetVal == ((HRESULT)0L)) || (bFailIfMissing == false), HRESULT=80070002 (E:\qfe\nts\sms\common\inc\ccmxml.h,582)

 

And towards the end, many times:

 

Failed to open Software\Microsoft\Sms\Mobile Client\Software Distribution registry key. The client should not get checked for RWH OpLock Type

First injecting your NIC driver by drvload

After you're sure about your NIC driver insert in your image boot.

Doubt about this post again.
