Where can I find information on writing an automated Windows9.x installation script.

I plan to use it to install multiple Windows OSes over a null modem (serial) connection.

You can use Nortons Ghost, but not sure if it can be done over a phone line. I have only used it by using a network boot disk then installing over a LAN conenction.

My intents is not to install Windows over a phone line, but through direct cable conection via the COM ports on the back of your PC.

I've already found information on writing automated installation scripts for Windows 95,98,Me on Microsofts Tech Net. All I really need is some MS-DOS networking drivers for the serial ports. Do you know where I could find them?
