Indeed they do. The solution we're considering ATM is
1) make the installer support running on a system where the drivers
are
already installed
Our installer is already able to handle this case.
2) make sure firstboot scripts aren't run before PnP is complete
This should resolve the conflict you wrote about, by making the
drivers
brought in by v2v fully installed via standard Windows PnP manager
first, and running the installer afterwards.
I think it can't hurt to get the firstboot script run before PnP... but
I have no idea how to do that, but may be you have one ;)
Item (2) is also useful to avoid similar conflicts with other
firstboot
scripts, because PnP often requires a reboot, and those firstboot
scripts may not tolerate a reboot in the middle of execution.
Will this work for you?
Sure. If we manage to run the first boot before PnP this hack is no
longer needed.
