    Is it possible to detect if the driver needs other files and prompt the
    user for this files' path (or assume a path to be looked for first) to
    copy it to /compat/ndis/ ?

    Ie, the user inputs /tmp/driver-foo_winxp-ver-bar/driver-foo.inf (same
    for sys) and the script tries to find the necessary files foo-a.bin and
    foo-b.bind under /tmp/driver-foo_winxp-ver-bar/ and copies it, or ask
    for the path if cant find it...
