Hi All,
I am using snetcfg for my intermediate driver installation.
"snetcfg -l .\netsf.inf -c s -i passthru" is what i am using for my
intermediae driver installation. But what happens is when i installed the
driver for the first time it is working fine. And after unisntalling when i
try to install the driver,it is prompting for the sys file path. If i locate
the sys file, it installs the driver. It happens with all the machines that
it does not require user intervention for the first time,and after that if
try to install,it requires user to locate the sys file.

The message box says "the driver passthru.sys on Microsoft Passthru Driver
Disk is needed". Then i commented SourceDisksNames section. But still i am
getting the same message. I am using it on windows XP with service pack 2.

Can anyone help me how to resolve this issue?
Thanks,
Senthil

Adding to the below mail,
I have modified the inf and driver. I
Have replaced passthru by thandoff. So, i am using "snetcfg -l .\netsf.inf
-c s -i Thandoff" to install the driver.
Thanks,
Senthil

Your installation might create a couple of oem*.inf and oem*.pnf files in the
c:\windows\inf directory. Try removing these after each uninstall.

If it tends to ask for a specific file, you can try copy it to c:\windows
before running the installer.


We have developed inf files and 'snetcfg' based installers on Windows 2000,
and later had issues moving these to Windows XP; on XP it often asks for
certain files during installation, while it works on Windows 2000. The above
workarounds seem to help for us.

Use SetupUninstallOEMInf to remove the old INF/PNF.
