Boot Loader

  • MS boot loader to choose Win7 or Ubuntu
  • If you choose Ubuntu, GRUB 2 is initiated (located/installed onto , with Ubuntu choices.

  • 1. Apply image using Acronis
  • 2. Format/wipe hard disk beofre applying image (can be done using Acronis Disk Tools), unless just putting back a single partition)
  • 3. Boot to Windows 7
  • 4. Since sysprep is having issues with 'specializing', you will need to go through the initial Set-Up Windows where country, language, etc. needs to be done.
  • 5. When getting to the user name, password & machine name: * create any user & password for user, you will delete this account after set-up has been completed and you've logged into system as cscf-adm. * machine name should be proper name as per host name/ip# on machine label. * before joining the domain, make sure machine is created in AD and that its in the Windows 7 OU container. Default and desktop folder redirection are the only GPO's applied in that container. * Join the domain, allow two reboots and approx. 12 minutes for all GPO's to finish loading in.

Bugs/problems

  • from magore - Remote Desktop not enabled for anyone (this might be a policy setting - Clayton?)
  • from snickers - smb printing not working
  • from rgarcia - AD setup script not working correctly, need rewrite
