Re: Deployment script for dual-boot computers



Quoting Allen Creech <email@hidden>:

Currently using Deploy Studio for system imaging and modular deployment
of packages in a lab environment.  I am resizing the boot partition of
disks0, creating a back-end MS-DOS partition on this same disk, and
formatting disks1 as a data-only drive through an ARD UNIX-command.  I
am then using WinClone to format the back-end partition and install
Windows XP for dual-booting.  All of this manipulation is being
performed on known-sized hard drives (i.e. all of my lab computers have
320G disks0 and 500G disks1).

I would like to modify my script so it can be extended to other labs
and need to take into account (a) there may be only 1 installed disk
(iMacs) and (b) the disks0 may not be 320G in size.

My scripting abilities are somewhat limited so I'm looking for a little
help.  I know 'diskutil list' will provide me with the # of disks and
disk sizes but I do not know how to collect this data and use it for my
needs.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Allen,

If you posted your current script, it would be a lot easier for any of us to help you modify it. Without it, I, at least, have no clue what you are trying to do.

Dave
