Automation script
« on: September 17, 2009, 12:59:05 PM »
Is there a way to insert a script into PLoP B.M. that automatic chooses for USB and automatic chooses for some option in Ghost?

So when I have the USB in the port, I will start the computer, hit F12 in my case and run PLoP from my network. Then PLoP will automaticly does the rest.


Automatic choosing:

PLoP:

- Choose USB

--(LOAD GHOST)--

Ghost:

- Choose Local -> Disk -> From Image
- Open the thinstation.gho (or .img)
- And run the setup

Is it possible?

Kind Regards
Rinse

yes, but script is the wrong term.

you can configure plpbt.bin with plpcfgbt to start usb boot. all the other things has to do your operating system on the usb drive.
