You can manually download drivers to the drivers share directory, which is organized in to subdirectories. You can store any type of drivers to the drivers directory, but Quest KACE recommends storing only the network drivers to this directory.
There are two boot environment folders in the drivers share directory and a folder for each supported operating system. Each KBE and operating system type requires its own driver version.
The drivers share directory has the following directory structure:
You can create subdirectories under the KBE folders to organize the newly added drivers.
Best practices for adding drivers

Access the drivers share directory of your appliance from the UNC path \\<appliance>\drivers where <appliance> is either the appliance IP address or the DNS name. |
4. |
Copy the contents from the KBE_driver_pack/kbe_windows_x86 directory in to the corresponding kbe_windows_x86 directory on the appliance. Also, copy the contents of the KBE_driver_pack/kbe_windows_x64 directory in to the corresponding kbe_windows_x64 directory on the appliance. |

For attended scripted installations, you can add the built-in Display Device Compatibility pre-installation task. This task enables you to verify whether all the drivers for the hardware for a device to which you are deploying the operating system are in the appliance prior to running a scripted installation. If there is a discrepancy, the list of hardware without drivers is displayed and the scripted installation is stopped.

On the left navigation pane, click Deployments, then click Scripted Installations to display the Scripted Installations page. |
