Old OS on new hardware

Hi,

I just run into the following problem. We have to use still SLES11SP1
and tried to install it on new hardware.

Problem: Either the network card and/or the raidcontroller was not detected.

There are updated drivers. I but it into the initrd file and can do the 
installation.
But I have to copy the files at the end (just before the system reboots) 
onto the disk.

What is the best solution for this kind of problem ?
How to integrate new drivers into the system ?

In this case (tg3, megaraid_sas) ...
