Prompted for driver files (inf/sys) during FBA run

[Graham Dunn]

I've componentized drivers for nforce MCP (SMB, ethernet), but I'm being
prompted for the location of several files (the ethernet inf and sys)
during the FBA run. As this is a USB-only system, and the USB drivers
haven't loaded yet, it makes it tricky to answer the prompts.

Does anyone have any suggestions or directions to alternate nforce sld
samples?

Thanks,
Graham

Lets make sure you have the SLD created correctly.

1. Are these missing files, listed as file resources in their respective
components?
2. Do you have a repository setup in the SLD? And is the component(s)
related to their respective repositories?
3. Did you get any errors when you built the image i.e. "File Note Found"?

Build complete, elapsed time: 205.11 seconds, estimated run-time image
size: 961.23MB / 1,335.04MB (compressed/uncompressed)
No errors and 5 warnings

SLD is available at

The error that's popping up

is:

"The file 'nvefdxp.sys' on NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller Driver
Disk 1 is needed"

The nvefdxp.sys is being placed in %11% (\windows\system32) where it should
be placed in %12% (\windows\system32\drivers). Try changing the file
location to %12% and see what happens.
