** ** ** VIA Networking Velocity Family Gigabit Ethernet Adapter ** ** PXE BOOTROM for Windows 2000 RIS server ** ** v1.18 May , 2005 ** ** Description ============ Due to this Gigabit Ethernet Adapter driver files didn't bundled in Windows 2000 Professional Compact Disc, thus we need copy driver files manully to RIS server directory in order to successfully remote-boot Windows 2000 Professional client. To Do ===== 1. Copy following driver files for windows 2000 to I386 folder on the RIS image. It should be RemoteInstall\Setup\Language\Images\Dir_name\i386. copy getndis.inf RemoteInstall\Setup\Language\Images\Dir_name\i386 copy getnd5b.sys RemoteInstall\Setup\Language\Images\Dir_name\i386 copy getndis.cat RemoteInstall\Setup\Language\Images\Dir_name\i386 2. Create the $oem$ folder at the same level as the \I386 folder of the RIS image. For example: RemoteInstall\Setup\language\Images\dir_name\i386 RemoteInstall\Setup\language\Images\dir_name\$oem$\$1\Drivers\Nic Copy the getndis.inf, getnd5b.sys and getndis.cat to this folder($oem$\$1\Drivers\Nic) 3. Make the following changes to the .sif file to be used for this image installation: [Unattended] OemPreinstall = yes OemPnpDriversPath = Drivers\Nic NOTE: The default name of the .sif file is RemoteInstall\Setup\Language\Images\Dir_name\I386\Templates\Ristndrd.sif NOTE: You can modify the folder name "Drivers\Nic" to other string you want, but this folder must be in the \$oem$\$1\. And you also changed the entry OemPnPDriversPath = [The folder name you modified] 4. Stop and restart the BINL service on the RIS server. Type the following lines at the command prompt, pressing ENTER after each command: net stop binlsvc net start binlsvc
