Solve : DOS cd boot with more NIC drivers??

Answer»

Hi! I've got a FLOPPY setup here that works ok. It boots and logs on to the domain and maps up a share from the fileserver and automatically runs Ghost.exe from the fileserver.

BUT the thing is, this floppy only supports one NIC driver. What I would WANT to do is to create a CD boot that works in the same way, only that I want it to autodetect the NIC and load correct driver automatically. Can this be done in some way?Should be possible. I didn`t do it myself yet.

uliYes, but how?

I've checked out Bart's Network Boot Disk (http://www.nu2.nu/bootdisk/network/)
, but I only need a little part of it. I only need some function that autodetects the NIC and loads the appropriate driver and that's it! I don't need any GIU or anything, just an automated function.i now that notorn ghost lets you make boots disk whit what ever drivers you want , if you have the norton ghost package . it can make prety simple STRAIGHT forword dos boot disks with as many drives as you can fit or multi disk setsYes I know, that's what I'm doing, but I want SEVERAL drivers on the same disk. With Norton Ghost boot wizard, I can only apply one driver PER disk.

I want several drivers on the same disk and have the boot disk automatically SELECT the one it detects from the NIC on that computer.Norton Ghost will allow you to include several NIC drivers on one floppy disk. Bart's Network Boot disk works great, and it is free. The instructions can look intimidating, but it isn't that bad. I'd give that a try. You can even automate the login to the domain.
