RIS and XP

[Guest]

I've created an XP image and when I go to install the image on another
machine (same spec as the one I created the image on) I get the error message:

"The operating system image you selected does not contain the neccessary
drivers for your network adapter etc etc"

The PC had all the latest drivers etc installed prior to running RIPREP.

The image file is Windows XP SP2 and the RIS server is running on Windows
2003 Server.

Any help would be appreciated.

A great website for this www.mvps.org/serverstuff

Also read the Microsoft KB links listed on that website

Make sure you've copied the .sys & .inf file of the network adapter to the
i386 folder of the Base image. From what you've mentioned the RIS process is
bombing out at the Base image stage rather than the prepared RIP image.

Hope this helps.
