Imaging black NSBSD clients is a simple 5 step process.

  1. Connect the client to be imaged to the network through a Netgear switch (This is a crucial step. Without the Netgear switch the client will not be able to connect to the image server)
  2. Start up the computer and when you see the Blue Dell screen press the F12 key.

  3. The Client will now boot up into the Pre Boot selection Menu
    Dell2
    Select the Onboad NIC or Network Card
  4. The Client will now boot up into the Image selection Menu
    Dell03
    Select the Desktop Image for all Black Clients / select the Laptop Image for all Laptop Clients
  5. The Ghost boot screen will now open. The client will wait 5 minutes (During this time you can boot up other clients that need to be imaged) before starting the image.

 

After the imaging is done the client will reboot and start into windows.
