I am trying to create a "mostly" unattended install of Windows 2000 and 2003. I have created a CD that does everything that I want except for one problem. Some of the engineers that I support need to load new drivers that are not on the CD. When they press F6 the install goes into the proper mode of loading the drivers from the diskette. It looks on the diskette and lists the drivers, letting the engineer select the correct driver, but when the install is supposed to copy the drivers from the diskette, it fails. It seems to be looking on the CD for the driver and not the diskette, saying that it can't find the drivers.
After some investigation I found that this one line in the winnt.sif file causes the problem:
OemPreinstall=Yes
If I set this line to No, F6 works correctly, but nothing in %OEM% is used. It seems to be one or the other.
Is there a way to have F6 continue to work and still have the contents of %OEM% used?
