Re: driver

I thought when you create a Repository (Add Repository) all the files in the
Repository will be included in the final build image. I was wrong. The build
picks up only the files included in the Component -> Add Files. I didn't have
all the other files to the Component-Add Files. The build had only 2 files
INF and SYS. I added all the other files I required to Component->Add Files,
I set the path to %24% now I got all the files in the final build.

Do you mean you see only some files getting copied from the same repository folder to the final image build? That sounds like a
weird behaviour. Do you want to check if the repository is created and contains all the files ? (check it out under the XPe
Repository share on your dev machine)

CAT files are not required under XPe.

I have the same problem. My ZIP contains INF,SYS, DLLs, EXEs you name it. I
copied all of them to one flat directory called "Rep". Then I imported the
INF, saved it.. Added a repository , named it Rep and set the path to
C:/Rep/, then I selected the component tab and set the Repository name to
Rep.

I built the image, I can see the INF and SYS in windows/inf and
windows/system32/drivers. But I don't see all the other files in the final
build image. Do I have to create a CAT file and include that to the component
?.

Please help.

Hi, All

I have a similar problem: the driver I need is deployed as an Install
Shield executable package. I got all the files when I just start the
package instalation and grab them from the temporary folder (then I
just cancel the instalation). There are some well known INF, SYS, DLL
and CAT files, as well as some CAB and EXE. Inside one of this CAB is
where I've got the INF and some others.

How do I get to know which files will I really need? Just the ones
mentioned by the "INF" file are enough? What about the others?
Should I pack them also?

Thanks
Francisco

Very simply just import the INF into Component Designer.

There are a number of websites and books with information on components:

Or are you having a specific problem with a driver?

I am just beginner with XPE. Anyone has any tools or any suggestion to
packing driver, so it will not become blue-screen to FBA.
