vernamm Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Hi All, i got the new DELL Latitude E6420 for my imaging, i'm using the NetBootDisk 6.5 + Ghost 11 and i need to add a new Intel nic driver (Intel 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection) did you know how i can add the driver ine the package ?
FN-GM Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Im not sure but if you use the Latest Intel Pro 1000 driver found on the website with the ghost boot disk wizzard it will work with that.
vernamm Posted August 16, 2011 Author Posted August 16, 2011 well, i have only the Ghost.exe ans GhostCastServer.exe and I think the ghost boot disk wizzard is not free to use
vultureman Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 I've updated the following drivers in the netbootdisk to their newest versions (as in the "last modified date" of each .dos file). I've also updated the ndis.map file to hopefully include all new files. As I also have a 6420, this is tested and working with it. The updated files.uha file link is two posts below, to overcome the bot filter this forum has. Accton EN22xx ETHPCM.DOS 1/5/2001 Accton EN5251 EN5251.DOS 11/8/2001 Broadcom 57x NetXtreme B57.DOS 3/14/2011 Intel Pro100 E100B.DOS 5/5/2010 Intel Pro1000 E1000.DOS 11/16/2010 Realtek 8168 Gigabit RTEND.DOS 8/26/2011 Seriously, learn how to follow the steps on the guy's website to use WinUHA to repackage and update drivers properly. It really isn't that hard and is only slightly tedious.
vultureman Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 I understand the need for the bot filter, but luckily I'm not a bot...just a helpful person.
vultureman Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 files.uha - File Shared from Box.net ^This is the link for the updated FILES.UHA for netbootdisk so that the 6420 will work.

vultureman Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Im not sure but if you use the Latest Intel Pro 1000 driver found on the website with the ghost boot disk wizzard it will work with that. netbootdisk allows you to put all of it on a single USB that can run batch process while still having mouse detection support and autodetecting loads of network cards. it's a huge timesaver.
vultureman Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Thank you my friend, I will test it soon as posible (today or monday) the downside is that you will have NO mouse support. cutemouse hasn't released any updates in a long time, so I am unable to fix that and there are no alternatives.
vernamm Posted September 16, 2011 Author Posted September 16, 2011 Ok but right now if i want to rebuilt the disk, i need to to what ?
vultureman Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 You only need to replace your current FILES.UHA with the one I have linked above.
vernamm Posted September 16, 2011 Author Posted September 16, 2011 i want to tell you "THANK YOU SO MUCH" everithing is working fine for my Dell Latitude E6420 i can use now the boot disk and if you have some time to burn, can you explain to me how you add the new driver in the file.uha

networkkai Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 My problem is when I download your updated files.uha file it won't fit on my floppy drive (I haven't had too much success with going the usb method) Is that the way you're goin about it now? With USB?
vultureman Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 (edited) For USB method: 1. Format a floppy disk as a MSDOS Bootable disk, and then copy all files off of that disk onto a folder on your computer. 2. Enable hidden files and system files viewing 3. Erase everything on the USB drive with the HP USB formatting tool, and use the option "Create a DOS startup disk using DOS system files located at" and point it to the folder you made in Step 1. 4. Download NetBootDisk and run MakeDisk.bat, then: a. Press enter b. Type in the USB drive letter for your drive, colon and press enter (ex. E:) c. Type in USB (USB) and press enter d. Press enter and close out of IE popup window 5. Edit some of the files in it: a. autoexec.bat set MenuBeep=0 b. menupref.bat Set LOGONSCRIPT=ghost.bat rem TIMEOUT=0 c. boot.zip make sure it contains COMMAND.COM...if not, copy from your floppy drive folder d. FileCopy folder create a file called ghost.bat, and add into that batch the line: N:\ghost.exe copy your ghost.exe you use for ghostcasting into this folder also e. copy over my FILES.UHA Should work on almost all computers!

networkkai Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 I can boot to the usb, but I get the error: TUNZ: Can't create n:\UHARCD.EXE and it says that command.com is corrupted.... I've recreated the disk a couple times and I keep getting this error... Thoughts?
vultureman Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 I should have mentioned, you need to do all of those procedures from a Windows XP box.
networkkai Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 I did the process from a XP box and it still gives me the same errors. Ideally what I'd like to do is to modify your UHA file and take out some of the unneeded drivers (I'm loading up this same Dell E6240 box) so I won't need some files. Once I've done that I can make a floppy and then burn the floppy to CD, which I've been able to successfully do... How do I extract files from that UHA file. I don't follow the netboot instructions easily...
vultureman Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) download WINUHA and install it. right click the .uha file on your desktop and select "extract to \files\" delete what you wanna delete (I suggest eth* and en* files...should slim it down enough...the original is 1135kb and deleting those 3 drivers would make it 1121kb) open up winuha, browse to the folder it's all in, and hit CTRL+5 which selects all items. Note, that's a 5, not an 's'. Then click "add selected" at the top. don't change any options here...click Advanced, check the command line option, delete the defaults, and add the following command line from his website without "winuha" at the beginning. NetBootDisk.com - The Universal TCP/IP Network Bootdisk for M$ Networks for the command line to recreate the UHA file...just use: a -y+ -p- -r -mx -ac+ files.uha .\zip\*.* you also may have a corrupt/old download of netbootdisk.
