Hi folks,
My employer is ramping up for a Mac deployment in an all-Windows environment. There will be no Apple servers on the network so running a netboot/netrestore server to image new computers is not an option.
The current workflow is to take a new Mac out of the box and run all the required OS updates from a sharepoint on a Windows server. I'd like to roll all those updates into a single installer so there's only one thing that needs to be clicked on. Or we might unbox the computer, install a management agent, and then push the package to the computer.
The problem I have is that with either PackageMaker or Iceberg I can't add flat packages to the metapackage that I'm making. Tiger-style (unflat?) packages add just fine.
Is there something I'm overlooking here? Is there a workaround for this dilemma?
Thanks, Steve McI
