RIPREP image and MassStorage Issue

I have been unsuccessful in adding Mass Storage Devices to my RIPREP image. I
have an MSI K8N motherboard, and I’m trying to get the image to find my Hard
Drives which are Western Digital SATA drives setup using the onboard RAID
NVIDIA controller.

What is happening is I boot up off the floppy and attach to my RIS server. I
only have one image there, so after filling in a few of the blanks, it starts
the setup, then tells me that it can’t find any hard drives on my system.

I found some information about adding the textmode folder to the image after
it is created, so I followed that. Now I get an error “txtsetup.oem caused an
unexpected error (21) at line 1747…�.

Does anyone have any experience with this board, or the ability to help me
out here? I would REALLY appreciate any help!
