Add the HP NC-Series Multifunction Driver for Windows 2008 Server using WDS

S._3 — Fri, 15 May 2009 02:52:02 GMT

I'm using WDS to create an image of a BL460c blade server using WinPE and WDS. I ran into the NC373i driver issue which has been covered several times in these forums. I finally managed to find the right drivers on the Broadcom site and managed to get over the NIC communication issues.

I now want to integrate/inject these drivers into the boot.wim file.

I found this HP Support Document that gives the steps on how to inject the drivers:

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c01425505〈=en&cc=us&taskId=101&prodSeriesId=428936&prodTypeId=15351

Can someone from HP kindly advise what HP is referring to in Step 5:

5. Unpack the network driver from their ZIP file to :\bl460c\drivers.

What do they mean when they say unpack "their" network drivers? Whose network drivers are they referring to and where can I obtain these drivers?

Please help!!

" I finally managed to find the right drivers on the Broadcom site and managed to get over the NIC communication issues." ---

So you downloaded drivers (presumably in a zip file) from Broadcom. What I understand from the instructions is that at step 5 you need to unzip these.
