Additional Information
ZENworks 7
SP1 IR1 HP1 version is required for the nic driver support.
This allows you to get to a bash prompt on manual mode. This
also allows PXE to work correctly.
Additionally, theusbwait commandline
parameter is required for the CD drive recognition for BootCD
support.
If you test
usbwait and it resolves the cd read issue, modify isolinux.cfg to
add this parameter to the BootCD image. For more information
on how to add command line parameters to the BootCD see TID 3001732"Steps to create a ZENworks Imaging DVD" at https://support.novell.com.
