Is there a way to install unsigned drivers with DIFxAPP?

I use WISE for Windows Installer and the DIFxAPP.msm merge module.
I did set the Flag for "Legacy Mode" in the MsiDriverPackages Custom Table
Schema as described in:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/DevInst_d/hh/DevInst_d/difxapp_98cfb9c3-2704-4027-92b0-c5124db73a08.xml.asp
But I get the following error in the installer logfile:

DIFXAPP: InstallDriverPackages
