Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Maybe it's just me, but for me I had a hard time finding the right documentation or commands to know how to add a driver to an existing Windows installation when migrating to other (virtual) hardware. Maybe my Google-fu wasn't good enough, but I found lots of people who didn't know how to do it.
Describe the solution you'd like
My suggestion is to have some scripts or small GUI program we could run to load the driver and to install that driver in the existing Windows installation on the 'C:' driver. The GUI program could be used to choose where things are located instead of having to type the commands on the commandline.
Describe alternatives you've considered
The alternative is to just include README.md on the ISO or on the download site.
Additional context
The commands I would like to be highlighted or automated are things like:
Command to load the driver from the ISO from on the recovery
drvload D:\vioscsi\2k16\amd64\vioscsi.inf
Command to use to rescan the newly added drive and show the new driver letters, run the command:
diskpart
and in diskpart run the commands:
rescan
list volume
exit
When you know the drive of the existing Windows installation you want to add the driver to and where the driver is stored you can run this command:
dism /Image:C:\ /Add-Driver /Driver:D:\vioscsi\2k16\amd64 /Recurse
