The
zmediacreator.exe
file is located at
/opt/novell/zenworks/zdm/imaging/
winutils/zmediacreator.exe
on your ZENworks Linux Management imaging server.
For instructions on using the utility, see Section 29.2.3, “Using the ZENworks Imaging Media
Creator,” on page 348 .
D.5 Imaging Configuration Parameters
(settings.txt)
The
settings.txt
file contains parameters that control how the imaging boot process occurs. A
copy is located in the
/opt/novell/zenworks/zdm/imaging/winutils
directory on the
imaging server where ZENworks Linux Management is installed. You should maintain the working
copy of
settings.txt
at the root of the imaging boot device (CD or DVD, or ZENworks
partition).
Settings.txt
is a plain text file that contains various parameters, each on a separate line. Each
parameter has the general format of PARAMETER=value. Lines that begin with a pound sign (#)
signify comments and are ignored during the imaging boot process.
You can edit this file manually in a text editor, or by making configuration changes in the
zimgboot.exe
utility (see Section D.4, “ZENworks Imaging Floppy Boot Disk Creator
(zmediacreator.exe),” on page 601 ).
IMPORTANT: If you manually edit the
settings.txt
file to provide any paths to executables,
make sure that you provide the full path, or the executable might not run.
The format and function of each parameter in the
settings.txt
file are described in Table D-4 :
Table D-4
Settings.txt File Parameters
Parameter Specifies
PROMPT Specifies whether to prompt for each configuration setting when you
boot a device from the imaging boot media.
If you leave this parameter commented out or set it to No, the device
boots using the configuration settings specified in
settings.txt
and
you can’t override the settings when booting, unless you type
config
at the boot prompt before the Linux operating system begins to load.
If you set this parameter to Yes, you are automatically prompted for
each configuration setting when booting.
