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.
Slightly OT, but you can run DeployStudio from a firewire drive, and from a Mac OS X client (recent versions will configure the necessary daemons for you).
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.
Bundle. If you unpack the flat packages with pkgutil --expand, you can then create a dist file and make a flat metapackage out of them with pkgutil --flatten. Just take a peek inside a flat mpkg, they're pretty simple. -- Per Olofsson System Administrator, ITS, University of Gothenburg _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
