took hal.dl_ files from the install directory and expanded them for the boot.ini file.
copies to c:\windows\system32
followed the novell method of creating the sysprep image
edited the boot.ini file to include different Hal
added these lines to boot.ini note the halstd.dll copies the hal.dll from the install and names it halstd.dll
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=”Standart PC” ⁄fastdetect ⁄hal=halstd.dll
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=”ACPI PC” ⁄fastdetect ⁄hal=halacpi.dll
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=”ACPI Uniprocessor PC ” ⁄fastdetect ⁄hal=halmacpi.dll
did the sysprep install and imaged to usb drive.
images teh p3 700 machine with the sysprep install, had to boot with bcd disk, edit the boot.ini file to add time to select the proper hal.
Had to boot with the std hal on the p3 and everything worked fine.
