BL460c WDS NIC drvier
Hello,
I'm trying to use my WDS server in order to manage BL460c blades OS deployment.
Simply PXE-booting a BL460c, WDS is reached and the WinPE environment is booted. But then an error shows, saying the network driver is not present in the current WinPE.
I read Microsoft instructions about how to add a driver to the Boot.wim file which contains the WinPE environment used by WDS (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923834/en-us
)
but could not find the right driver...
Drivers from HP site fail the test of manually load them in WinPe and see if network works (drvload + wpeutil initializenetwork).
The one I found passing this test is a RIS-dedicated driver on the Broadcom site. But this one can't be injected in the boot.wim file.
Any other driver I can try?
thanks
ps. network card is Broadcom Nextreme II, ID 16AC

Re: BL460c WDS NIC drvier
At last, the injecting worked if making it from a WS2008 machine...
(it uses the AIK set of tools which maybe like better WS2008 and Vista...).
Apart of this, I really think HP should make the WDS(RIS) driver of this network card availble for download on its site - I was lucky to find it on the Broadcom one, but this NIC is HP-branded....
This driver is the only one working on WDS, none of the ones downloadable from the HP site is.
