Hello, I think I am not the only one who has lot of drivers :) so this problem maybe not a "lone" one... at least I hope so.
Now I hope to find a way to work around. Namely in nt5x-install script there is a part which do the file copy-s, maybe this can be a part of my suggestion. I am thinking about the following: - in /os folder I created a folder /os/drv in which I put all my driver folders - in an osdir (e.g. test) I create a symbolic link in the /os/test/$OEM$/ folder to the previously mentioned driver folders, like /os/test/$OEM$/$1/ - when the "Copy system" section of the nt5x-install comes, somehow the system files have to be copied _without_ the symbolic linked driver folder. This way the full driver folder wont go to the "soon-to-be c:". BUT, and here is where I need a bit more study, I need to "parse in a way the unattend.ini (looks like parse_ini_file will help a lot). Maybe I can use the variable OemPnPDriversPath as a starting point to copy only the needed drivers to the "soon-to-be c:". (because this variable holds only the selected driver folder names, which is my goal). Does it make any sense to you? If it works, it maybe also can be done with textmode drivers (which are a lot more less, fortunately) Wednesday, August 19, 2009, 5:06:30 PM, you wrote: > On Wed, 2009-08-19 at 15:37 +0200, FwdTmp wrote: >> hello everyone, >> >> Is there any way to get rid easyly the unused driver?
