16.

Navigate

to

your

As

field

on

the

Export

Registry

File

this

new

registry

key

so

that

all

machines

will

have

the

advanced

hidden.

This

can

be

used

for

any

of

the

settings

in

the

ADM

file.

Deployment

scenario

2

This

section

describes

installing

Rescue

and

Recovery

in

a

new

rollout

on

Lenovo-branded

and

IBM-branded

computers.

Preparing

the

hard

disk

drive

The

first

step

to

consider

when

deploying

a

system

is

preparing

the

hard

disk

drive

of

your

donor

system.

In

order

to

make

sure

you

are

starting

with

a

clean

hard

disk,

you

must

clean

out

the

Master

Boot

Record

on

the

primary

hard

disk.

1.

Remove

all

storage

devices,

such

as

second

hard

disks,

USB

hard

disks,

USB

memory

keys

and

PC

Card

Memory

from

the

donor

system,

except

the

primary

hard

disk

that

you

are

going

to

install

Windows

on.

Attention:

Running

this

command

will

erase

the

entire

contents

of

the

target

hard

disk

drive.

After

running,

you

will

be

unable

to

recover

any

data

from

the

target

hard

disk

drive.

2.

Create

a

DOS

boot

diskette

and

place

the

cleandrv.exe

file

on

it.

3.

Boot

the

diskette

(only

one

storage

device

attached).

At

the

DOS

prompt,

type

the

following

command:

CLEANDRV

/HDD=0

4.

Install

the

operating

system

and

applications.

Build

your

donor

system

as

though

you

were

not

installing

Rescue

and

Recovery.

The

last

step

in

the

process

is

to

install

Rescue

and

Recovery.

Installing

This

first

step

in

the

installation

process

is

the

extraction

of

the

InstallShield

executable

to

the

C:\RRTEMP

directory.

If

you

are

going

to

install

Rescue

and

Recovery

on

multiple

systems,

performing

this

process

one

time

will

reduce

the

installation

time

on

each

machine

by

roughly

one-half.

1.

Assuming

that

the

installation

file

is

located

in

the

root

of

the

C

drive,

create

a

file

EXE_EXTRACT.cmd,

which

will

extract

the

file

C:\z501zisXXXXus00.exe

(where

XXXX

is

the

build

ID)

to

the

C:\RRTEMP

directory:

::

This

package

will

extract

the

WWW

EXE

to

the

directory

c:\RRTemp

for

an

::

administrative

installation.

@ECHO

OFF

::

This

is

the

name

of

the

EXE

(Without

the

.EXE)

set

BUILDID=z501zisXXXXus00.exe

::

This

is

the

drive

letter

for

the

z501zisXXXXus00.exe

::

NOTE:

DO

NOT

END

THE

STRING

WITH

A

"\".

IT

IS

ASSUMED

TO

NOT

BE

THERE.

SET

SOURCEDRIVE=C:

::

Create

the

RRTemp

directory

on

the

HDD

for

the

exploded

WWW

EXMD

c:\RRTemp

::

Explode

the

WWW

EXE

to

the

directory

c:\RRTemp

start

/WAIT

%SOURCEDRIVE%\%BUILDID%

/a

/s

/v"/qn

TARGETDIR=c:\RRTemp"

Copy

Z501ZAB10YYUS00.tvt

and

Z333ZAA10ZZUS00.tvt

to

C:\rrtemp\

(where

YY

and

ZZ

are

build

IDs)

copy

Z501ZAB10YYUS00.tvt

to

C:\RRTemp
