Starting the Imaging Boot Disk Creator

To start the boot disk creator as a standalone utility (from Windows), double-click the

zimgboot.exe file. There are no command line parameters. To start the utility from ConsoleOne,

click Tools > ZENworks Utilities > Imaging > Create or Modify Boot Diskette.

TIP: If the Imaging Boot Disk Creator fills up too much of your screen, change your screen resolution to a

setting greater than 800 X 600.

For the overall process to create imaging boot diskettes, see “Creating Imaging Boot Diskettes” on

page 446. When creating the diskettes, you can configure various aspects of the imaging bootup

process, including:

 How to communicate on the IP network, if necessary

 How automated the imaging bootup process should be

 Which imaging server to contact during automated operations

 How large the imaging ZfD Workstation Imaging (Linux) partition on the hard disk should be,

if one will be created

 Which language support (English or otherwise) to load for the keyboard

For details on these and other configuration options, see the online help (click the Help menu or

press F1) in the utility. The configuration settings you make in the utility are saved to the

settings.txt file on the fourth imaging boot diskette. You can edit this file after creating the diskettes

if needed. For details on the format of this file, see “Imaging Bootup Parameters (Settings.txt)” on

page 486.

If you need to create imaging boot diskettes to boot with a non-English keyboard but the language

you need isn’t listed in the utility, see “Imaging Bootup Languages (Zimglang.ini)” on page 488.

Using Zimgboot.exe to Add Linux Drivers

Use the Add Linux Drivers function to specify the Linux drivers you want to place on the fourth

boot diskette (if space allows) or on an additional Linux drivers diskette.

Using this function, you can search for and add the network path to Linux driver files that you have

created or downloaded. The dialog box helps you to build a drivers list and categorize it by driver

type (SCSI, Block, Network, PCMCIA, and Miscellaneous). You can also remove unwanted

drivers from the list. This master list of driver files can be added to a diskette that you can specify

later.

The Add Linux Drivers function also lets you specify the drivers you want to load by default. You

do this by selecting the name of a driver on the master list and then clicking the Load button. This

moves the driver name to the default load list, where you can change the load order of the default

drivers and further specify their individual loading parameters.

When your load list is ready, you can use a function in zimgboot.exe to copy the additional Linux

drivers to a diskette. All of the driver files are stored in different subdirectories of the \drivers

directory on the diskette:

1 2 ... 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 ... 77 78
