HI
This patch fix the co-installer to search for the ib_bus.inf in
different directory.
We still need to search it in well known directory (I used "ib_core"),
pls test it
I did not apply it yet I will let you to play with it and then we
decide
NOTE: This is minor change but still it different from the version of
WHQL.
I guess if one will try to take 614 version with this change and pass it
WHQL there will be no new problems.
If it will work for you we can open branch based on 614 version and
patch this in.
Thanks
Yossi
