Possible to slipstream RAID drivers into Deploy Asst.

Tried to install Server 2008 onto S3420PLC with RAID RS2WC080.

Could not see disks or configure RAID.

Had to install manually ~ PIA.

Any way to slipsteam the drivers into the Deployment Assistant?

I can configure the array in bios but would make for the OS install to go much smoother if it was on the DA.

ver 3.5.5 (latest DA used)

IDA does have integrated driver to support add-in SAS RAID controllers, but seems the driver is not new enough to support RS2WC080... Hope later IDA will integrate with updated driver to support new RAID controllers.

Even if just the drivers could be loaded so it could prep and load the OS ~ would be enough.

I can always configure the array's in the bios of the controller.
