i found this while trying to find a way to install nt4 on a Poweredge 2850 with a 4e/di raid controller. the setup fails - well, it actually does a reboot loop after reading the 2nd setup floppy. so, what i'd like to do is maybe add the 2003 driver to whatever file to have it recognized (hopefully)
do you think this is possible?

I too had the Dell poweredge 2850 with no floppy drive.
Windows 2000 would boot from CD but fail to see the Perc4e/di interface nor the SCSI disks attached.
I went out and got a generic USB floppy drive from PC World and stuck it in the right most USB port.
I then set the bios boot options to boot from the floppy, I put a floppy in the drive with no boot code and then removed it. It then went to boot the CD and recognised the USB floppy.
Problem solved.
