I have followed the Doc's for my unnatended install but I cannot get any
additional files to copy.

I created a $oem$\$1\drivers folder under i386 on my CD, but it was not
copied during install.

So my drivers do not get installed .

Please help
 
Did you set OemPreinstall=Yes in the [Unattended] section of your
answer file?

Yes I did

It's OK, I have solved it now, there is an error in the MS docs I was
reading.

The $oem$\$1\drivers folder needs to be in the root of the CD and not under
i386 as the docs say

I don't believe the MS docs are wrong, but you could be forgiven for
thinking that they are referring to all types of unattended setups.
CD-based unattended is the same as RIS in that $OEM$ lives alongside i386.

If you can point me to a document and a page reference that you believe is
wrong, I can do the legwork in chasing Microsoft up and getting it
corrected.

Cheers

I can't honestly remember, it may have been in a deployment guide
