      yeah, I was using the already mounted images folder for my drivers. I see now that those other lines are not in use either, thanks

        I’m attempting to use this in our image deployment to push drivers and am having some trouble that is hopefully not difficult to overcome, I’m just not real script savvy. 😞 I have placed my drivers in the /images/Drivers folder and my fog.postdownload is as follows:

        
        #!/bin/sh
        if [ $osid == "5" -o $osid == "6" -o $osid == "7" ]; then #only handling Win7/8/8.1
            clearScreen;
            mkdir /ntfs &>/dev/null
            ntfs-3g -o force,rw $part /ntfs
            # mkdir /fog &>/dev/null
            # mount -o nolock,proto=tcp $storageip:/fog/ /fog 
            # dots "Mounting Device";
            if [ "$?" = "0" ]; then
                echo "Done";
                . ${postdownpath}fog.drivers 
              # . ${postdownpath}fog.ad 
              # . ${postdownpath}fog.snapins
                umount /ntfs; # unmount when all is done :-)
            else
                echo "Failed To Mount Device";
                sleep 30;
            fi
        fi
        

        The computer responds with :

        ntfs-3g: No mountpoint is specified

        gives lots of usage instructions and options then

        Failed to mount device

        then restarts after about 30 seconds.

        My fog.drivers file is as follows:

        #!/bin/sh
         
        ceol=`tput el`;
        machine=`dmidecode -s system-product-name`; # Gets machine model
        machine="${machine%"${machine##*[![:space:]]}"}" #Removes Trailing Space
        #system64="/ntfs/Windows/SysWOW64/regedit.exe"; # dirty way to determine if it's 64bit or not
        #if [ -f "$system64" ]; then
        #    setarch="x64"
        #else
        #    setarch="x86"
        #fi
        #############################################
        #this is not section necessary needed, it's just to make the path "human readable"
        #rather than using osid for filepath
        if [ $osid == "5" ]; then
            osn="Win7"
        elif [ $osid == "7" ]; then
            osn="Win8.1"
        elif [ $osid == "9" ]; then
            osn="Win10"
        fi
        #############################################
        dots "Preparing Drivers";
        # below creates local folder on imaged pc
        #this can be anywhere you want just remember
        #to make sure it matches throughout!
        mkdir /ntfs/Windows/DRV &>/dev/null;
        echo -n "In Progress";
         
        #there's 3 ways you could handle this,
        #driver cab file, extracted driver files or both
        #so on the server put extracted driver files to match below folder tree
        #i.e. Model Latitude E5410, Windows 7 x86 image would be:
        #/images/Drivers/Win7/Latitude E5410/x86
        rsync -aqz "/images/Drivers/$osn/${machine}/*.*" /ntfs/Windows/DRV &>/dev/null;
         
        #if you wanted to use driver.cab use this line below.
        #i.e. /images/Drivers/Win7/Latitude E5410/E5410-Win7-A07-KTT4G.CAB
        #cabextract -d /ntfs/Windows/DRV "/images/Drivers/$osn/${machine}"/*.CAB &>/dev/null;
         
        #if you wanted to mix both cab and extracted use these next two lines:
        # rsync -aqz --exclude='*.CAB' "/images/Drivers/$osn/${machine}/$setarch" /ntfs/Windows/DRV &>/dev/null;
        # cabextract -d /ntfs/Windows/DRV "/images/Drivers/$osn/${machine}"/*.CAB &>/dev/null;
         
        #this next bit adds driver location on pc to devicepath in registry (so sysprep uses it to reference)
        # remember to make devicepath= match the path you've used locally
        #also do not remove %SystemRoot%\inf
        #and to add more locations just use ; in between each location
        regfile="/ntfs/Windows/System32/config/SOFTWARE"
        key="\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DevicePath"
        devpath="%SystemRoot%\inf;%SystemRoot%\DRV";
        reged -e "$regfile" &>/dev/null <<EOFREG
        ed $key
        $devpath
        q
        y
        EOFREG
        echo -e "\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b${ceol}Done"; # this just removes "In Progress and replaces it with done :-)"
        

        Would you be able to assist?
        Thanks,
        Gregg W.

              @gwhitfield as you’re using /images as your driver location you do not need to mount a share as it’s already mounted, so /fog mount is irrelevant to you. as you’re only doing one arch or having both drivers on the image, i’m assuming as you commented it out, make sure your folder layout for drivers matches this for example a Windows 7 build OptiPlex 7010 would be:
              “/images/Drivers/Win7/OptiPlex 7010” and all your drivers for the 7010 would be within that folder

              Try these and let me know how you get on 🙂

              fog.postdownload:

              #!/bin/bash
              case $osid in
                  [5-7]|9)
              	clearScreen
              	getHardDisk
              	getPartitions $hd
              	if [[ ! -d /ntfs ]]; then
              	    mkdir -p /ntfs >/dev/null 2>&1
              	    [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]] && echo " * Failed to Mount Device"
              	fi
              	for part in $parts; do
              	    umount /ntfs >/dev/null 2>&1
              	    ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile,rw $part /ntfs >/dev/null 2>&1
              	    [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]] && continue
              	done
              	. ${postdownpath}fog.drivers
              	umount /fog /ntfs /images >/dev/null 2>&1
              	;;
              esac
              

              fog.drivers:

              ceol=`tput el`;
              machine=`dmidecode -s system-product-name`;
              machine="${machine%"${machine##*[![:space:]]}"}"

                @Lee-Rowlett Seems like I’m very close. The image task completes and I get the following just before the machine restarts. Unfortunately no drivers are copied so the image fails to bootup since there’s no drivers in it:

                /images/postdownloadscripts/fog.postdownload: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token '$' in\r''

                        @Lee-Rowlett Success!! Evidently my fog.postdownload and fog.drivers files got corrupted by editing in Notepad. Thank you for sending me a clean version! Working like a champ. Also for purpose of posterity or future users, the name of the folder for each individual hardware type needs to exactly match the spelling and case of the “System Product” field in the “Inventory” for that machine (or type of machine):

                          I gotten this to make the edits to the unattend.xml but it still doesnt join the domain. Do you have a Windows10 Unattend.xml that i can compare where I went wrong?

                            @Greg-Plamondon where are you calling the unattend.xml from and how are u verifying the unattend.xml is beinf edited correctly? Also are is it x86 or x64?

                              @Lee-Rowlett I remoted in and took a look. Cleaned up the scripts a lot, with Gregs help (-- @Greg-Plamondon I grabbed some credit but it still mostly goes to you --). I asked Greg to post the finished scripts after generalizing them so his environment is safe. Hopefully you will like them, and others as well.

                                @Lee-Rowlett The unattend.xml is in the C:\Windows\Panther directory. I removed the option from my setupcomplete.cmd that deletes the unattend.xml, so after it boots I can take a look at it and the edits were made to it. Should I be editing the C:\Windows\Sytstems32\Sysprep\unattend.xml instead of the Windows\Panther ?

                                  @Greg-Plamondon it should be in one or the other place. Panther is checked first. When you sysprep’d where did you tell sysprep to look for the file?

                                    @Tom-Elliott Thanks for helping me adjusting them for my needs.
                                    @Junkhacker Thanks for the fog log script, you dont know how many time I have forgotten to delete the damn fog.log

                                      @Greg-Plamondon it should be in one or the other place. Panther is checked first. When you sysprep’d where did you tell sysprep to look for the file?

                                      i didnt i just ran sysprep.exe /oobe /generalize /reboot

                                        @Greg-Plamondon Then you must ensure that unattend.xml must be in panther or sysprep folder. Typically its good practice to specifically call out the direct path to unattend.xml file.

                                          Hi,

                                          there is no need for having unattend.xml in a Special Directory, use /unattend:[FQPath] to Point Panther to the file.

                                          Regards X23

                                            @x23piracy I think most of us are aware of that. Even if we’re not it does ultimately make things simpler to just know where to find the “default” locations.
