None

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: 
1. Download the altirisbwc*.img file to the C:\Program 
Files\Altiris\eXpress\Deployment Server\Images directory on the Altiris Server 
hard drive.

2. Optional: Download sample jobs.

3. Optional: Set the BIOS -> Boot Order option for each Client to 'boot to 
network' first. The alternative is to use the netbooton/netbootoff sample jobs 
to trigger boot order remotely from the Altiris server.

4. Optional: Capture partition 5, using the -p5 option, to save any customized 
settings on the Client. An alternative (cleaner) method is to use the 
DeployKeepSettings job, which saves and restores specific settings files 
instead of the whole partition.

5. Use Altiris DS 6.8 (SP2 or later), or Rapid Deployment Pack 3.70, to deploy 
this image to clients.

6. Optional: Copy the /settings/settings*.txt files from partition 5 image from 
Step 4 to restore the configuration settings. Another alternative for 
preserving settings is to use a browser on another system to connect to Webmin 
on a client (https://myclienthostorip.com:10001), then go to the Others tab and 
select the System Logs icon, and cut and paste the contents of the 
settings*.txt files. Use pscp to copy these files to other clients after the 
installation of the new image. See the "Getting Started Guide" addendum for 
details.
