uso del ghost en un ambiente de spanning cds

miércoles, 30 de julio de 2008
I came up with this guide to make it as easy as possible to deploy ghost images from CDs. I prefer to use unicasting or multicasting whenever possible but there are times when a CD set is needed. I have received a lot of help on these forums and wanted to give a little back.

This guide will help you to take a large ghost image and span it on to CDs with the first CD being bootable. Also the first CD contains ghost.exe and autoloads ghosts to deploy the image.

I am currently using Symantec Ghost 8 Corporate but this process should work for most versions of Ghost.


SPANNING YOUR IMAGE
===================
1. Open up the ghost image to deploy in ghost explorer
2. Select view | options | set a span split to fit your cd media
3. Select File | compile and save your image

MAKING YOUR FLOPPY IMAGE
========================
1. Start with a Windows ME boot disk and keep only these files

AUTOEXEC.BAT
CD1.SYS
CONFIG.SYS
MOUSE.COM (get this from disk 1 of a ghost boot floppy)
MOUSE.INI (get this from disk 1 of a ghost boot floppy)
MSCDEX.EXE
IO.SYS
MSDOS.SYS
COMMAND.COM

2. Change your autoexec.bat to match the following:
CODE
@echo off

MSCDEX.EXE /D:tomato /L:R
SET TZ=GHO+08:00
prompt $p$g
MOUSE.COM
for %%i in (r:\*.gho) do set image=%%i
echo Loading...
\ghost\ghost.exe -clone,mode=load,src=%image%,dst=1 -rb


NOTE: If you do not want to auto deploy the image then remove
the parameters after ghost.exe

3. Change your config.sys to match the following:
CODE
FILES=30
BUFFERS=20
DEVICE=cd1.SYS /D:tomato
LASTDRIVE=Z


4. Make an image of your floppy using WinImage
a. Open WinImage then click on Disk | Read Disk
b. Click on Image | Change Format and select 2.88
c. Drag and Drop the Ghost folder including ghost.exe from disk 2 of a ghost boot disk set
d. save your image as a .ima image

MAKING CD1 YOUR BOOTABLE CD
===========================
1. Open Ahead Nero Burning ROM and choose bootable CD "CD-ROM (Boot)"
2. From the boot tab put a check in image file and browse to your .ima file
3. Put a check in "enable expert settings" and change emulation to 2.88
4. Click on new
5. Drag and drop the first *.gho image from your spanned ghost image
6. Burn your CD

MAKING CD2-CDx GHOST CDs
========================
1. Open Ahead Nero Burning ROM and choose "CD-ROM (ISO)"
2. Click on new
3. Drag and drop the next *.ghs image from your spanned ghost image
4. Burn your CD

DONE

Just take your CD set now and put in CD1 and let it rip. Ghost will ask you for
the next CD when it is ready for it.

PosteRazor: Tu póster gigante en casa

lunes, 7 de julio de 2008

Este programa gratuito y de código libre, creado por Alessandro Portale, nos permite convertir archivos y prepararlos para imprimir en cualquier tamaño que queramos. Siempre y cuando la tinta y paciencia para pegar las partes nos alcance, el tamaño no tiene límites. La idea es usar una impresora normal para crear tu propio póster gigante.

El proceso es bastante rápido, te explicamos paso por paso:
Seleccionamos la fotografía o gráfico que queremos imprimir
Elegimos el tamaño de papel y configuramos los márgenes
Seleccionamos cuanto queremos que los bordes se sobrepongan (para facilitar el re-armado)
Elegimos el tamaño final del póster que queramos
Salvamos el archivo .PDF para imprimir dónde queramos

Seguro que ya estás pensando imprimir el póster de tu modelo favorita (o favorito) de varios metros para pegar en la pared de tu cuarto. Si te decides a hacerlo, cuéntanos como te fue.
