Auto driver Install

In Progress: Documentation for adding the Auto Driver install script from Frontier School Division.

Overview: The Auto Driver install script is an addon for FOG that allows you to build a hardware independent Windows 7 image. Devices on the system will be detected by FOG, and drivers inserted

Setup Repository

• Create a folder inside of /images named drivers

mkdir /images/drivers

• Create a Common folder for drivers/scripts you want on all systems.

mkdir /images/drivers/Common

• Create a SetupComplete.cmd file. This is a script, that when copied to C:\Windows\Setup\Scripts is executed at the end of the SysPrep process. The Frontier script stops the FOG service, runs a netsh command to push out a wlan profile, deletes the profile xml file, the sysprep.xml and fixes the permissions on the C:\drivers folder. It's a quite useful tool to use. I recommend at least having:

net STOP "Fog Service"
start "Reset C:\Drivers Permissions" /wait "icacls" C:\drivers /reset /t >>"C:\FOGDriverInstall.log 2>&1

Adding Drivers

• The script currently detects three categories of Drivers: PCI, USB & PNP.
• The first step is to identify the device that you want to install. On an imaged Windows 7 machine, go to device Manager.
  • Right click the device, and go to Properties.
  • Click the details tab, and go to the Hardware IDs dropdown.

Building the Universal Image

• Include driver search path to C:\Drivers (Detect it in the script maybe and add the reg entry if it's missing?)
