Steps to add SATA drivers to the distribution point
1) Download the Intel SATA AHCI Controller Driver, SoftPaq SP32478.exe, from www.hp.com.
2) Extract all the files from the SoftPaq. A USB floppy is necessary for this step. Run sp32478;
this will create a floppy disk. The files will be located on this floppy.
3) These files should be located on the floppy disk.
a. iaahci.cat
b. iaahci.inf
c. iastor.cat
d. iastor.inf
e. iastor.sys
f. license.txt
g. readme.txt
h. 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\s
ata
6) Open RemoteInstall\Setup\<Language>\Images\<Dir_name>\i386
\txtsetup.sif in Notepad.
7) Go to the end of the file. There will be several blank lines.
8) Move the cursor up a few lines. This is necessary because there is a hidden marker at the end
of the file.
9) Add the following lines to the txtsetup.sif file:
[SourceDisksFiles]
iastor.sys= 1,,,,,,4_,4,1,,,1,4
iaAHCI.cat=1,,,,,,,20,0,0
iaAHCI.inf=1,,,,,,,20,0,0
iaSTOR.cat=1,,,,,,,20,0,0
iaSTOR.inf=1,,,,,,,20,0,0
