ok so i have a raid0 setup, but i cant get windows xp setup to recognize it because i dont have a floppy drive anymore. how does one go about embedding a driver like that onto a windows xp cd? all i need to do is to add my raid controller's drivers to the windows xp cd so that i do not have to hit F6 and insert the floppy disk. thanks for any help or information. could i do that using the setup manager?

To access that SCSI controller during text mode, the [MassStorageDrivers] section of the answer file must be modified with the appropriate device driver entries.

This will help with your CD building.
