<li class="">When I create a new OS X 10.11 image, temporarily disable SIP during creation to place the drivers.

identify the right CHANNELID and i can place the driver at /usr/local/pcsc/drivers/smccid.bundle) or a writeable location somewhere in /Library/ that smart card services already looks for drivers</li></ol></div></div></blockquote><div>10.11 looks for drivers in /usr/local/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers, which is now preferred location for user-installable smart card reader driver bundles.
