A. To add a new adapter, perform the following steps o­n the RIS server:

If the driver isn't digitally signed, you must configure the installation to ignore the driver-signing policy. To do so, open the RIS image's .sif file (e.g. Ristndrd.sif) and add the following line to the file's [Unattended] section:
DriverSigningPolicy = Ignore
Expand the NIC driver and copy the .inf and .sys files to the RemoteInstall\Setup\\Images\image\i386 folder. (Image represents the name of the image file.)
Within the image's \i386 folder, create the folder structure $oem$\$1\Drivers\Nic. For example, create the folder
RemoteInstall\Setup\\Images\image\i386\$oem$\$1\Drivers\Nic
Copy the .inf and .sys files that you copied earlier to the new folder.
Open the .sif file for the RIS image, and add the following lines in the [Unattended] section. (If the OemPreinstall line already exists, edit the line to say yes instead of no.)
OemPreinstall = yes
OemPnpDriversPath = Drivers\Nic
Restart the Boot Information Negotiation Layer (BINL) service by entering
net stop binlsvc
net start binlsvc
