Introduction
|
| |
Anyue Technology Co., Ltd. has developed
another solution in order to adapt to different
AYGHOST Genie environment. It combines CD-free
solution with Multicast Systems based on DOS,
and forms the CD-free Multicast system solution.
CD-free Multicast system solution is to divide
a partition at the end of hard disk, and then
to copy the bootable files, multicast systems
and some other information into it. Modify
the main board BIOS, and press corresponding
prompt button as the computer restart, enter
into multicast systems to complete multicast
system. |
| |
Main application environment:
Internet cafes, school computer rooms, large
computer manufacturers with brand-name computers
|
| |
Operating procedures:
This operation takes a certain brand-name
computer produced by a large computer manufacturer
as an example. The main operations of the
solution mainly contain preparations before
leaving factory and clone operations after
leaving factory. It mainly implements the
creating of HPA1 partition and the burning
of main board BIOS before computers leave
factory. After computers leave factory, it
should mainly accomplish system clone, installation
of protection system, etc.

1. Preparation before
computers leave factory
1) Create HPA1
The partition at the end of HD is HPA1 partition,
whose size is 190-210M, format is FAT16 or
FAT32, and mode is LBA. Copy CD-free programs
and multicast systems into HPA1. Following
are detailed procedures:
A: Divide the HD by sfdisk software as required,
to divide a main partition and HPA1 mentioned
above, and formatting the divided partition
by format program.
B: Use bootable floppy disk or CD which support
CD-ROM to boot (The floppy disk or CD has
refresh BIOS program files, CD-free program
and multicast systems). Upload DOS system
to C: (SYS C: ) and HPA1 partition ( SYS D:
) separately. Copy refresh BIOS program files-outbios.bat
and inbios.bat into C: and copy the CD-free
program and multicast systems into HPA1.
Download
(This links to download
files needed to copy into HPA1 after uploading
DOS system.) 2) Burn BIOS module
Refresh CD-free BIOS module program romdata.bin
into main board BIOS before computers leave
factory. Anyue Technology offers simple
batch programs outbios.bat (take original
BIOS module) and inbios.bat (add CD-free
BIOS module and refresh BIOS). Here will
set widely used main board BIOS—Award
BIOS as an example to illustrate the process
to refresh BIOS. Please refer to corresponding
illustrations for other main board BIOS.
C:\>outbios.bat
C:\>inbios.bat
Following are detailed operation of these
two batch programs:
A: The extraction of BIOS program:
a) Execute awdflash bios.bin backup.bin
/sy /pn, and get BIOS backup file backup.bin.
(conserve carefully)
b) Execute copy backup.bin bios.bin, and
then operate bios.bin.
B: Write romdata.bin into bios.bin:
Execute cbrom bios.bin /isa romdata.bin
C: See bios.bin file:
You will see romdata.bin program after executing
cbrom bios.bin /d. If some corrupted characters
occur, there must have no enough space in
BIOS.BIN, and you should uninstall some
unnecessary programs.
D: About burning of BIOS program:
Execute awdflash bios.bin /py /sn, the BIOS
in computer will be replaced by bios.bin.
ROM program prompt will appear after starting
up computer.
(Note: you should assure not to shutdown
or restart computer, or it will do damage
to main board)
3) HPA1 lock
After BIOS burn complete, you should lock
HPA1 in order to prevent users from operating
HPA1. The detailed operation is to restart
computer and press CTRL+F8 to enter into
AYGHOST interface as the program prompt
appears, and then just shutdown the computer.
In order to guarantee the empty HD state
before leaving factory, you should delete
the created main partition by sfdisk software.

2. Operations after
leaving factory
All computers should be installed systems
and application software after leaving factory.
It’s really a large project. Thus, you
need to install multicast systems to every
computer. Following are detailed procedures
offered by Anyue Technology:
1) Collect IP address
Start up AYGHOST Genie, select Collect IP
Address, and designate the search scope of
IP address, click and begin to collect, and
it will begin to collect every computer’s
name, MAC address, IP address, etc..
Note: This step is unnecessary if these computers
are new ones without any system.
|
| |
|
| |
The Program can search all name, IP address,
MAC address and subnet mask in scope designated
by the local network. Click Save after collection
completed. The information will save as *.cfg
format. |
| |
|
| |
2) Make mother disk
Install OS and necessary software on one certain
computer as mother disk. Run AYGHOST Genie
on this mother disk. See detailed procedures:
|
| |
|
| |
A: Open AYGHOST Genie, and click Create
InstallPack
B: Select Configure Computer Name and IP Address,
and then set net card address and computer
name according to configuration files, and
choose Find Files to get *.cfg files got in
step 1). (This step can be passes if those
are empty computers)
C: Select auto install AyRecovery, and then
choose find folder to get created AyRecovery
installation file. If you didn’t create
configuration file, please click on Configure
to create the configuration file setup.cfg
(It is a must procedure). The generated configuration
file should be kept under the folder where
AyRecovery installer located. Create setup.iss
file according to created configuration file
setup.cfg. Click on “Start”, select
“Running” and input “installation
directory\setup.exe /r” (Installation
directory is the address to place AyRecovery
installer, for example, if AyRecovery installation
file is saved under C: \AyRecovery\, just
input the following order C: \AyRecovery\setup.exe
/r). Open AyRecovery installer, and select
“advanced” installation. Find
setup.iss file under directory C:\windows
(which would be C:\winnt in Windows 2000)
after computer rebooted, and copy the file
into folder under root directory where AyRecovery
installer located. (The step can be skipped
if you do not use AyRecovery)
D: Manually distribute fixed IP address, subnet
mask, default gateway, DNS, etc for this computer,
in which subnet mask should be in accordance
with original subnet mask, and default gateway
and DNS should be original default gateway
and DNS.
E: Click Add to Auto Execute to complete making
mother disk.
Note: If you need to operate AYGHOST Genie
or clone frequently, please click Create
Install Pack to create an install pack for
further use after executing step4 when making
mother disk for the first time. You needn’t
to repeat step1, 2, 3 and 4 any more. Select
Auto Run Install Pack label, and find created
install pack files, and then click Add to
Auto Execute.
|
| |
|
| |
Note: You need to shutdown the computer
after complete mother disk.
3) Multicast Systems
A: Restart computer, press CTRL+F8, input
correct username and password to enter into
AYGHOST interface. See as following drawing:
|
| |
|
| |
B: In order to operate multicast systems,
please select Start AYGHOST with network support. |
| |
|
| |
C: The program will ask you to select the
type of net card, and then click OK. AYGHOST
supports scores of common Internet cards.
If your net card is not in these net cards,
please add net card by using the program in
MAKE-NET directory. |
| |
|
| |
D: The program will execute automatically
and enter into the program interface of AYGHOST.
Then you can make some interrelated operations |
| |
|
| |
E: Select multicast systems, and select
mother disk as the sender. Boot other computers
in the same way and select them as receivers.
Press Enter key at transmit end after all
receivers have been connected to clone the
whole hard disk. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
4) Inspection test
After completing multicast systems, and restart
receiver end computers. It will modify computer
name and IP address and install AyRecovery
automatically. Please check whether settings
are correct or not after installation completed:
a: Correctly install AyRecovery or not;
b: The configuration of AyRecovery take effect
or not;
c: The distribution of IP address be correct
or not;
d: The distribution of Computer name be correct
or not;
e: Each computer normally work or not. Selective
inspect the operation and running on part
of software.
Note: If computers have no systems before
AYGHOST, you needn’t to inspect the
distribution of computer names and IP addresses.
If computers have other protection systems
installed, inspect these protection system
can normally run or not.
