Use

either

Symantec

or

PowerQuest

DeployCenter

software

to

create

the

image.

If

you

intend

to

deploy

the

image

using

CDs,

make

sure

you

use

the

tools

provided

with

your

image-cloning

tool

to

segment

the

image

into

files

that

can

fit

on

CDs.

Note:

Set

the

maximum

file

size

for

CDs

at

600MB.

If

you

are

using

Symantec

Norton

Ghost

version

7.5,

make

sure

you

use

the

-cns

parameter

when

creating

the

image.

7.

Store

the

image

in

its

own

folder.

In

the

case

of

CD

deployment,

where

you

had

to

segment

the

image

into

CD-sized

files,

store

all

of

the

files

in

a

single

folder.

Make

sure

the

folder

is

in

a

location

that

is

accessible

by

the

ImageUltra

Builder

console.

8.

Store

the

image-cloning

tool

that

you

used

to

create

the

image

(Symantec

Norton

Ghost

or

PowerQuest

DeployCenter)

in

the

same

folder

as

the

image

file.

9.

Store

any

batch

files

or

script

files

that

you

may

have

created

in

the

same

folder

as

the

image

file.

Setting

the

attributes

for

the

new

base

operating-system

module

The

following

information

describes

how

to

set

the

attributes

for

a

new

Hardware-Specific

Image

base

operating-system

module

without

using

an

existing

module

as

a

template.

If

you

want

to

set

the

attributes

for

a

new

module

to

match

the

attributes

of

an

existing

module,

see

“Setting

the

attributes

based

on

an

existing

base

operating-system

module”

on

page

146.

To

set

the

attributes

for

the

new

module,

do

the

following:

1.

Open

the

repository

where

you

want

the

new

base

operating-system

module

to

reside.

2.

If

your

repository

contains

folders,

navigate

to

the

folder

where

you

want

the

new

base

operating-system

module

to

reside.

3.

From

the

Main

Window

menu

bar,

click

Insert

and

then

click

Operating

System...

.

The

New

Module

Wizard

opens.

4.

Click

Next

.

5.

Verify

that

the

Operating

System

radio

button

is

selected,

and

then

click

Next

.

6.

In

the

Name

field,

type

a

name

that

you

want

to

use

to

identify

this

module.

Be

as

specific

as

possible.

This

name

will

be

the

name

that

appears

in

the

repository.

Note:

It

is

a

good

idea

to

include

the

image

type

as

part

of

the

name,

such

as

(HSI)

for

Hardware-Specific

Image.

This

will

help

you

when

you

create

your

maps.

7.

Click

the

No

radio

button

to

indicate

that

this

module

is

not
