SMC is aware of this problem and has released new drivers and .inf files that
work with unattended installations. Contact SMC and obtain the SMC-NT.exe
hotfix, then perform the following steps:

   because they will be updated:

   oemnaddt.in_
   oemnads8.in_
   dosnet.inf
   layout.inf
   txtsetup.sif

2. Copy the SMC drivers into your distribution share point for Windows NT:

   oemnaddt.in_
   oemnads8.in_
   smc8000.dl_
   smc8000.hl_
   smc8000n.sy_
   smcisa.sy_
   smcpwrn.hl_
   smcpwrn.sy_

3. Depending on if you are installing Windows NT Server or Workstation 4.0, copy
   these files into your distribution share point also:

    - Windows NT Server 4.0

   /nt40serv/dosnet.inf
   /nt40serv/layout.inf
   /nt40serv/txtsetup.sif

    - Windows NT Workstation 4.0

   /nt40work/dosnet.inf
   /nt40work/layout.inf
   /nt40work/txtsetup.sif

4. If you are using your own Unattend.txt file, please take note of the section
   below, the keywords required for each SMC adapter are listed on the LimitTo
   line.

   [DetectAdaptersSection]
   DetectCount = 1
   ; SMC Incorporated the SMC NT drivers and file names into the
   ; necessary files so that SMC PCI adapters will now autodetect
   ; during the normal Windows NT 4.0 detection phase.
   ;
   ; Certain Keywords have been changed to do this properly.
   ; "DC21140" =  SMC9332DST EtherPower 10/100
   ;              SMC9332BDT EtherPower 10/100
   ;              SMC9332BVT EtherPower 10/100
   ; "DC21041" =  SMC8432 EtherPower With ROM Socket
   ; "DC21040" =  SMC8432 EtherPower Without ROM Socket
