sysprep image and SCSI RAID

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Group,

Is anyone here familiar with BDD 2.5?
I am trying to build a unified image for Desktops, Laptops & Tablet PCs.

My issue comes from the fact that although I am building a master image on an IDE class HD type machine to later sysprep and Ghost; when I capture the HD image and dump it on a similar class HD the image works, when I dump the image on one of my Tablet PC the image fails.

Couple of things I need to mention:

1 The target machine that the image is failing is a Toshiba M400 with a SCSI RAID controller
2 The error message I get when the target machine is booting for the first time is error message 0x0000007b (unable to access boot device)

Since my process is emulating what BDD 2.5 recomends, the process initiates a unatteded install via unatted.txt, it continues with its texmode process and later one executes a series of automation scripts to later run sysprep with several switches (-reseal -mini -forceshutdown, etc) to finally shutdown the machine leaving it on a state where I then can Ghost the HD.

I need to find a way to:

1 I need my Ghost sysprep image to be able to identify the OEM drivers for the SCSI class HD when I dump my image on the target machine without generating a 0x0000007b error message
2 Force the process to allocate the OEM drivers during minisetup utilized by one of the target machines (this requirement is needed since I am building the master image on a IDE class HD machine to later dump the image on a SCSI class HD machine, this methods is possible and supported by Microsoft as specified in the Sysprep SP2 deploy.chm file)
2 Be able to understand what changes if any, I have to make in my unattend.txt and sysprep.inf files

any help would be graetly apreciatted.
