Welcome to the group, Lane
Yeah, the RIS installation files for SCSI don't belong in the $OEM$ folder
for the text mode install. You can put them there for the subsequent GUI
portion of the install, however. You need to look at either
OemPnpDriversPath or by modifying txtsetup.sif.
Here is a good site to find your answers:

Here are a few snippets of threads that I thought might be of interest:

I have the following working for my unattended builds on IBM servers using
the IBM ServeRAID 4X Controllers. It's been a while since I have looked back
at this but I do remember having some problems initialy. I recall there was
some doco from IBM relating to the serveraid cards in w2k unattended
install.
I have all the drivers placed in i386\$oem$\textmode.
dir list:
IBMNFRD.CAT
NFRD960.SYS
nfrdci.dll
NFRDPERF.SYS
OEMSETUP.INF
TWINTAIL.SYS
TXTSETUP.OEM
My txtsetup.oem is below.
I hope this helps you... otherwise make sure you take a look at IBM support.
[Disks]
d1 = "IBM ServeRAID Device Driver Diskette", \NFRD960.SYS
[Defaults]
scsi = NFRDWin2k32
[scsi]
NFRDWin2k32 = "IBM ServeRAID 4M/4Mx/4L/4Lx Controller (Windows 2000 and
XP-Beta Servers)"
# If you hit F6 and specify to load an OEM driver, NT loads the first driver
in
# the list. If you don't hit F6 and specify to load an OEM driver, NT loads
# the last driver in the list.
[Files.scsi.NFRDWin2k32]
driver = d1, nfrd960.sys, NFRD960
driver = d1, twintail.sys, TWINTAIL
driver = d1, nfrdperf.sys, NFRDPERF
driver = d1, nfrd960.sys, NFRD960
catalog = d1, ibmnfrd.cat
inf = d1, oemsetup.inf
[Config.NFRD960]
[Config.IPSRAIDN]
[Config.TWINTAIL]
value = "", Group, REG_SZ, "System Bus Extender"
[Config.NFRDPERF]
value = "", DependOnGroup, REG_MULTI_SZ, "SCSI Class"
# Use CDROM class instead of filter class so that diskperf works w/o any
tweaking.
value = "", Group, REG_SZ, "SCSI CDROM class"
[HardwareIDs.scsi.NFRDWin2k32]
id = "PCI\VEN_1014&DEV_01BD", "nfrd960"
Reply: Thank you very much.it really works.i took out
[MassStorageDrivers] and [OemBootFiles] section from the
winnt.sif file.
