RE: Fujitsu Tablets - How to mess with the OS

["Stuart Whyte" <lists@xxxxxxx>]

I think the way that Pedro is talking about is using Ghost enterprise edition to "push" a disk image from a network server.  You then only need to boot the Fujitsu and tell it to connect to the ghost server (dont ask me how to do this) and the server will place an image on the tablets HD.

If we
can
get a "virgin" machine I'd be happy to Ghost off an image and
cut it to
CD
for everyone to be able to do a clean restore ... The
problem is that
ghost
relies upon the drive being installed and working
in the first place!
(So you
need to get the OS and apps on and working
in the first
place.)
