TITLE: HP Compaq Blade Workstation Raw Image

VERSION: 08.81 Rev. A
DESCRIPTION:
This package contains the image needed to restore or replace the operating 
system image on an HP Compaq Blade Workstation Client running the HP Blade 
Workstation Client Embedded Operating System. 

Raw images are created by using Linux dd to create an exact bit-for-bit copy of 
the DOM drive for the HP Workstation Blade Client. Altiris Deployment Solution 
(DS) 6.8 is the only supported network installation tool.

This raw image is provided for users who want to select a different 
installation tool and need a base image with which to start.

For information about the HP Blade Workstation Client series and the features 
provided by Embedded Operating System (OS) Version 8.81, see the document 
titled "HP Blade Workstation Client series - Embedded OS Version 8.xx," which

2. For details about applying raw images, see the installation instructions for 
the chosen network installation tool. 

NOTE: This raw image is not guaranteed to work with any specific tool, and is 
meant to completely overwrite all data on an existing DOM drive for the 
Client.

Preserving previous configuration settings is not possible when applying a raw 
image. Save contents of /setings/settings*.txt files using a remote browser 
window to open a remote Webmin session. Use https://myclienthostnameorip:10010 
-> Others -> System Logs to manually preserve settings. Use this raw image at 
your own risk.
