Well I found out that I was trying to select a root directory that contained
subdirectories of different model NIC drivers versus specifying a directory
that contained specific NIC driver files. Once I set the add NIC drivers to
the directory that contained files for the NIC on the machine I was using
everything started working and the drvier files were indeed copied to the
package distribution.
However, I am tryin to run a custom VBS script that runs great when in
Windows XP but fails on "invalid syntax" when run under Windows PE. I
believe it was failing on WMI portions of the script. Any suggestions there?
