Slipstreaming RAID drivers into boot cd for Windows Server 2003 R2

[Fir]

Does this work just like XP?

Is nlite the best software to use for this?

What's happening is we have a new supermicro server that does not have a floppy drive. F6 is not possible. I plug in a USB floppy and the machine sees it but setup does not.

If I switch from RAID to IDE mode on SATA mode in BIOS it will see both drives. A mirror can be made by making the disks dynamic but I'd rather not do this and use the motherboard's raid instead.

I know you can build bootable disks for XP but never tried for Server 2003 but they look the same.

Any ideas before I do a lot for nothing?

Yes, you can do it with nLite.

XP and Server 2003 will not see all USB floppy drives. It'll only see certain makes and models. MS has a list on their site.

I've done this with nlite many times.

That worked like a charm! It was almost too easy!

Thanks again.
