archive maps and modules. Also included is a search feature to help you locate a
specific map or module, or to locate groups of maps and modules with common
characteristics.

Notes:

1.

For more assistance, the View-->Source option has been added to the
Repository Window for ImageUltra Builder. Selecting the View-->Source menu
item causes the highlighted module’s Source Directory folder contents to
appear in a Windows Explorer window, and allows you to browse a folder’s
contents without having to open the module.

2.

The Tools --> Set Password option has also been added to the Repository
Window for ImageUltra Builder, which allows you to change your password.

The Repository window is divided into two panes: the Folder area and the
Contents area. The left pane is the Folder area. You can add as many folders and
subfolders as you feel are necessary to organize your maps and modules. The right
pane is the Contents area, where you view the contents of the repository or
contents of any folder. Along the top of the Contents area are tabs that enable you
to view the contents of the repository or any selected folder in a variety of ways:

v

All maps and modules

v

Operating-system modules only (base operating-system modules, add-on
operating-system modules, partitioning modules, UNATTEND.TXT modules in

ImageUltra Builder 5.0 template modules

By default, the ImageUltra Builder program provides one folder in the repository,
the ImageUltra folder. The ImageUltra folder contains sample maps and
ready-to-use utility modules, filter modules, special-purpose application modules,
and special-purpose operating-system modules. Also included are module
templates for creating I386, Windows Vista, or Windows 7 base operating-system
modules, and UNATTEND.TXT modules in Windows XP and UNATTEND.XML
modules in Windows Vista or Windows 7. The name of each map, module, and
template provided by the ImageUltra Builder starts with ImageUltra 2.0 -,
ImageUltra 2.01 -, ImageUltra 4.01 - , ImageUltra 5.0 - to identify the version of the
ImageUltra Builder program for which these maps, modules, or templates were
originally developed or updated.

Although the Repository window looks similar to Windows Explorer and some of
the functionality is similar to Windows Explorer, it is important for you to
understand that you are working with a database, not a file system. Each entry in
the Repository window is a reference to a map or module, not the name of the
map or module itself. By using references, you can have multiple entries for the
same map or module in different folders, and when you modify the map or
module in one folder, the same changes apply to all entries for that specific map or
module in all folders.
