The

ImageUltra

Builder

program

enables

you

to

predefine

default

settings,

or

prompt

the

person

performing

the

installation

for

specific

user

information

near

the

beginning

of

the

installation

process,

or

both.

Thus,

this

feature

can

help

minimize

the

amount

of

time

that

an

installer

needs

to

be

present

at

the

target

computer

during

the

installation

process.

Note:

To

minimize

the

amount

of

time

that

an

installer

needs

to

be

present,

you

must

predefine

or

establish

prompts

for

all

user-information

settings.

The

ImageUltra

Builder

program

prompts

for

user

information

very

early

in

the

installation

phase,

therefore

if

all

required

settings

are

preset

or

defined

as

prompts,

all

required

setup

information

will

be

obtained

early

and

the

person

controlling

the

installation

will

not

have

to

be

present

later

in

the

installation

process

when

Windows

setup

(or

mini

setup)

normally

prompts

for

this

information.

You

also

can

define

your

own

settings

and

prompts

for

other

purposes.

For

example,

you

can

prompt

the

installer

for

the

office

number

where

the

computer

is

being

installed

and

the

telephone

number

for

the

user.

Then,

you

can

run

your

own

software

anytime

after

the

installation

is

complete

to

collect

the

office

number,

telephone

number,

and

user’s

full

name

to

create

or

append

a

company

phone

book.

User

information

is

implemented

in

base

maps

on

a

map-by-map

basis.

All

predefined

user

information

and

installer-provided

user

information

is

gathered

during

the

installation

process

and

stored

in

a

file

called

PERSONAL.INI

located

in

the

root

folder

of

the

target

computer.

the
