Hi All,
Up until recently we have been using RIS to deliver HD image to laptops. The only problem we've had with it is when we purchased a number of Toshiba Portege R100's. What exactly was happening was that the unattend file was becoming currupt for some reason, even with a vanilla install of XP. This ruled out any software running in the background that may have affected the RIP process.
A collegue of mine suggested buying Norton Ghost for our imaging needs. Having purchased a copy of it I'm now at the stage where i create a boot disk to access the image drive over the network - 'Drive mapping boot disk' to be exact.
Before I go any further i must admit i feel like a total mong for posting such a stupid question. I'm now trying to adding the driver for the laptop to the driver list, Ghost users will understand. But when i get to the part where it was to build the boot disk it informs me that the boot disk is to large for one floppy and that I may want to reduce the size of the amount of drivers i have selected. This is my problem; I've only picked one driver (for the laptop) and it won't let me span the boot disks over two floppies, just one.
Am i doing this right? Does this sound familiar?
If anyone would like more information please don't hesitate to contact me.
Any help would be much appreciated.
