Lately I'm beginning to get an error message when I try opening an image
file that states:

"You don't have enough permission to access the file"

It doesn't happen all the time. I'm currently at Netware 6.5 w SP5 and
Zen 7 SP1. It doesn't seem to happen all the time. I've gotten this on
an image that was created from a Dell Latitude C610 and a Dell Optiplex
GX620. What is funny, I created another image with the GX620, and I can
open it up just fine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I sent it without the space and got the response back. I assume the space does not matter..

This one's a headscratcher. Sometime (we're not entirely sure, we're
trying to nail it down to a date) around December, whenever we reimage
a workstation either via multicast or by pulling the image file down
manually, an additional partition is created on the workstation. The
original image has two partitions; one is the Dell Utility partition,
and the other is the system partition. Typically, after we reimage the
PC we have to tell the system that the partition type is Dell Utility
so it hides it. We use this command:

echo -e 't/n1/nde/nw/n' | fdisk /dev/sda

Alternately we use /dev/hda if it's an IDE drive instead of a SATA
drive.

In the past this has worked, and no additional partitions were created.
However, in the last month or so, it seems that a SECOND Dell Utility
partition is also created. I've looked in the image file and there's
only two partitions. I've tried removing the Dell Utility partition
from the Image file, but then the system won't boot after it's reimaged
(because the boot.ini is looking for the System on the third partition
for some reason).

Thanks

Send an email to zen.feedback@novell.com with the subject "ZDM7 HotPatch" and they will respond with a link to download it.

There is a lot of references to "Hot Patch 2" in the most recent postings.
I too have new Optiplex 745's that I cannot image. Can anyone provide me
with a URL to download HP2 or is this one of those "gotta contact novell
support" to get it patches?

I hate the fact the you cannot use the file finder to find patches by
product anymore. The regular download section is god-awful.

I am having some oddball issues with bash scripting and I am unsure what is
going on. First off, let me post my current script:

#!/bin/bash
while [ "$imput" != "0" ]
do
clear

echo "******************************************"
echo " Centimark Image Menu "
echo "******************************************"
echo ""
echo ""
echo "[1] Image Laptop"
echo "[2] Image Desktop"
echo "[3] Clean Image"
echo "[4] Exit to Bash"
echo "[5] Reboot Machine"
read input

case $input in

At our school, departments make a habit of purchasing hardware without
our knowledge - About a year ago, someone bought an HP PSC1350 printer,
with built in card reader. They liked it, and others followed suit.

Unfortunately, Zen Imaging picks up this card reader as a HDD (at least
that's what I think is happening), so any workstation with one of these
printers plugged in fails to image.

I've tried various Boot CD's, and have tried newer kernels via PXE boot
- all do the same thing.

Can anyone think of a workaround for this? I've thought about
disabling USB on the imaging kernel, but have no idea how to do this,
or if it would break other things.

Thanks in advance
