| Summary | 0000278: Error : The Driverpacks root directory in the settings file doesn't contain a valid Drivepack directory structure! | ||||
| Description | This error occurs if your "documents and settings" folder is not located on the C drive. In my case i explicitely defined in my winnt.sif that my profilesdir("documents and settings" ) should be created on the D drive, which maked it easier to restore an image of my C drive without the loss of "My documents", "Favorites", etc. , which, as we all know, reside in the "documents and settings" folder. This is a really handy feature, therefore i really would like to see this problem solved. How to solve: I noticed the following lines are responsible for setting the %systemdrive% to %homedir%: In DPsFnshr_funcs starting on line 1060: if stringInStr($fa_string, "%systemdrive%") then $fa_string = stringReplace($fa_string, "%systemdrive%" , @HomeDrive , 0, 0) endIf I suggest changing "@HomeDrive" to something like this (have not tested this!): EnvGet("systemdrive") I was able to find the variable "@HomeDrive" also on line 76: if regWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce", "DriverPacks Finisher final cleanup", "REG_SZ", "cmd.exe /c ""del /f /q " & @HomeDrive & "\DPsFnshr.exe""") then I suggest to make the same change in that line aswell.
