88 Creating boot disks with the Ghost Boot Wizard
Adding command-line parameters to a boot package
Customizing the template
You may require additional drivers and programs in order to use the network
device attached to your computer. For example, many USB network devices must
load an extra driver for the USB port before the driver for the network device.
You can add files to the template and customize the Autoexec.bat and Config.sys
files of the resulting boot disk. Usually these are either DOS drivers or executable
programs, but you can add any type of file. Files added to the template appear in
the list to the right of the button.
If this template is used as a multicard template, then any additional files or
modifications are overridden by its settings.
The Template Properties window is available when creating a
Peer-to-Peer Network
Boot Disk or a Drive Mapping Boot Disk.
To modify a template
1 In the Template Properties window, on the Advanced tab, click New.
2 Click Delete to delete the selected file from the list.
3 In the Autoexec.bat field, type any additional Autoexec.bat entries for the
driver.
The entries appear before any network-related commands, such as
Netbind.com or the packet driver executable.
4 In the Config.sys field, type any additional Config.sys entries for the driver.
The entries appear before any driver-related devices to ensure that the
enabling drivers load before the main network device drivers specified on the
network driver page.
Adding command-line parameters to a boot package
You can add command-line parameters to a boot package to instruct Norton
Ghost to perform certain actions.
See “Command-line switches” on page 153.
Command-line parameters can be added while creating a Standard Boot Disk, a
Peer-to-Peer Network Boot Disk, or a CD/DVD Startup Disk with Ghost boot
disk in the Ghost executable location window.
