iBooks Re-imaged & Labeled
Re-imaged 60 iBooks today-Multicasting off the XServe with the iBook image. For some reason imaging from Net Boot and iBook.dmg via AFP did not work and defaulted to the eMac image when I restored them last week. My tech students hooked up all 60 machines in the eMac lab, plugged in power and ethernet cables, and labeled all machines by cart. Multicasted after school so as not to inadvertently disrupt the network. All machines imaged with no problem; even those that stated a 5% packet loss and did not restart automatically after imaging. When rebooted, they had the new iBook image.
