Ok I know this is kinda the cheap way out but I've been going at this for almost a week now and I'm close to being finished.

I have successfully managed to make a USB installer for snow leopard and it boots and installs just fine. The part I need help with is my drivers. When I booted it up I realized I forgot the drivers for my laptop. It would be amazing if someone could tell me how to customize the installation with the drivers for my laptop or point me to a sticky that has the process in as much detail as my fried brain can handle. I appreciate any and all help at this point.

Really? No one wants to lend me a hand? C'mon people...

Author Update #2 @uhtardedsqwirl 2010-02-12

Thank you. I found quite a few drivers, most of which should work for me.

Now that I understand that I need some help with my "No keyboard connected problem." I can't manually install any drivers because I have yet to make it past the "Welcome" screen because of this. I've been googling around and the only solutions I keep getting are to plug in a USB keyboard and mouse. Is there any solution other than that for those of us that don't have a USB keyboard and mouse sitting around?
