Group Snapins
-
I was wondering if it would be possible to make a group snapin basically I like to keep my image as bare bones as possible so the only thing extra in it are network drivers so I can push the snapin’s I make for Video, chipset, PowerManagement, USB3, etc. Than I would like to group those snapin’s for that specific model of computer so that I just need to pick the group snapin and not all the different snapin’s it’s a minor inconvenience the way it is now but thought other people might find it useful as well.

@Darrell-Lanson If you can hold off for a little while, @joe-schmitt is working on multi-file snapins for the new fog client. It would solve your issue as you can have one single snapin that would contain many files.

You might be interested in post download scripts for this. Will accomplish basically the same thing, but in a more universal manner.

The scripts I use do that. They get the model, and architecture, then using that pulls the needed drivers for the machine. All automated.

A post install script is the best for pushing drivers, since the target computer has access to the network using FOS, once windows boots and the drivers are not loaded you are off-line.
There are two tutorials that will help you.
