netmap.inf syntax?

Hi folks,

I am trying to upgrading from NT4 to 2003. This computer has a CNet Pro 200
(WL) PCI NIC (looks like a Davicom harware). I got the latest driver (1.55,
1/2005) from the provider. It includes both a NT4 driver (NDIS3&4) and a
"XP" driver (NDIS5) that I assume should work with 2003, albeit "unsigned."

However, when I run Setup, it says to me the "... networking component [is]
not compatible ..." blurb. There is a nice-looking [Have Disk] button, and I
happen to have a disk! Trying this one... leads nowhere, since what it wants
really is a netmap.inf file that does the mapping.

Googling a bit to understand what it is about, had a look after the format
of netmap.inf which is nicely explained at the beginning of this very file
(inside the i386\WINNTUPG as expected), seems easy to expand, so I wrote
mine according to the datas I have at hand:


[version]
signature="$Windows NT$"

; -----------------------------------------------------------------
; PCI cards
;
[PciAdapters]
DM9PCI = PCI\VEN_1282&DEV_9102&SUBSYS_50323030


Put it inside the folder where are the relevant XP driver, tried again to
[Have a disk]... No fun! "The OEM files at the specified location are valid
but not meant for upgrading the components currently displayed as
unsupported."
Of course I checked 3 times DM9PCI is indeed the name of the faulty driver,
so the message is slightly misleading.

I guess my crude NETMAP.INF is missing something important; for example, I
do not see how Setup will guess where to look for the relevant .INF+.SYS
files to finally install the driver... But how can I hack it?


Any idea?

Antoine
