WinPE 2.0 simple Ghost Menu HTA

Recommended Posts


Thanks to those that attempted to help with my issues.

Went back into the HTA and through trial and error located the problems - lots of confusion between " and Chr(34) and ' placement that just kept breaking things.

As of right now, it appears to be working correctly. I changed the layout a bit - put the list of images on the right side where the HTML details were, because in our setup we have lots of clients with lots of images and I needed the room.

On the HTML "details" side of things, I have a small section above the "tools" buttons to show those details - we only use a line or two (if we use them at all) - so that works out fine for us.

Someone here at work asked for a keyboard shortcut for each 'client' button - as nice as that would be, I think we could run out of letters and numbers before we ran out of client buttons.

The only other issue I have - and it's no fault of the script - is when the actual GHO image file name or the directory name contains 'odd' characters in them - like parentheses and apostrophes. That's more a training issue here - get folks to keep the images directories simple and put the notes and things in the HTML details file instead.

Kudos again for a fine piece of work. :D

What is the quickest way to change the Title text to another color than Black?

IE "Build and Recovery Center"

Also, how tough would it be to create a button which will kick-off a specific session, such as:

"X:\Program Files\Ghost\Ghost32.exe" -clone,mode=restore,src=@mcHP,dst=1,SZE1=20471M,SZEL -sure -RB

I'm trying to migrate my existing Ghost configuration into this GUI without changing a lot behind the scenes.

Thanks!

Please ignore this post, I cant seem to delete it.

I found my problem, I was missing the Scripting in my winpe. I had HTA and XML, but was missing Scripting.

Ken.

I am having a bit of trouble that I hope someone can help straighten out.

I have manage to load the wizard.hta with winpe, but when I do, all I see are the buttons and no text. Also the buttons do not function.

when I load this on my computer, everything works properly.

I have verified the correct directory paths. actually I just made my share z: to match the script.

I am using winpe 2.0 (Vista) I was wondering if there are any special permissions that need to be set somewhere. I am logging in to the share as administrator.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Ken.

Ok, now I have a real question.

I need to create the links for the images with the share path, but that path doesnt exist on my server, so when I try to create a link with z:\dell\dell.gho for instance, it compains that it doesnt exist.

Do I need to create a share somewhere from my server, and map it as Z: to create these?

Any advice would be apreciated.

Thanks

Ken

BTW, this is an awsome script.

I have been trying to get that one working for most of the morning, and without any luck. Myself and a few other individuals were having problems with a certain activex control. That's why I was wondering if there was going to be a version of this for ImageX :)

I was wondering if someone could give me a hand.

I am trying to modify this script to include running ghwalk32.exe /AV=All /sure after the imaging is complete.

I am a total noob to vbscript, so everything I have tried fails.

If someone can give me a little assistance, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Ken.

good article!

but i consider don't need many images like this, i only created one image to restore 98% computer(IBM WS AND DELL LAPTOP). spare 2% use unattended mode, because these 2% use image would be "blue screen".

HTA! Learning.....

Thanks for u sharing.

My initial guess (because I've not tried it) is to create a CMD script file that launches Ghost32 with the image info and switches and then runs GhWalk32 afterwards - but then that would happen on EVERY image (which might be what you want.)

I added a "tool" button at the bottom for running GhWalk32 manually.

The tool button would be fine with me, Could you share your syntax? I keep trying, but Im messing something up and cant get it to run.

Thanks
