4. Select how to display the boot menu. For example, you can choose to start a particular
deployment template automatically after a time-out.
5. Select whether you want to create an Acronis bootable media (a removable media or an ISO file
of the media) or to upload the templates to Acronis PXE Server.

Having saved the ISO file, you can create as many media copies as the users need by using
third-party CD/DVD burning software. When creating a bootable media for user-initiated
deployment, you can specify network settings, such as the name of the deployment server, in
the same way as when creating any other bootable media. For details, see “Creating an
Acronis bootable media” (p. 65).

The templates being uploaded to the PXE server can be protected with a password to
prevent the templates from unauthorized execution. A password prompt will come up when
the user selects a template in the boot menu. No password will be required to start the
operating system.
