However, not dual boot. WinXP is the only installed OS. The MacBooks required a settings.txt file with all commands included because support for keyboard is not available. The key is capturing the image. Select only the XP partition. Then push it back down to target machine. Zenwork 7.1 HP6, although I think we first did this with Zen 7.0. However, I have been unsuccessful Zen imaging a Parallels VM. I read your blog, but could you send me a few more details. Image being pulled is a Sysprepped WinXP Pro SP2 to a fixed Virtual Hard Disk. (20GB) - Thanks. BTW, Cool posts.

Seriously, this is great stuff, guys. I just started looking into getting more Mac to run on our network and we have got Zenworks which we are very happy with - using it with Windows desktops only for now. Future did look pretty bleak as I did not think Zen would even look at Macs ( Intel Macs running Windows that's it; I just wish it could do OSX as well ). Now I know it can be done, I guess. Still have no idea about PXE boot, though. You are ( helping ). Seriously, this is great stuff, guys.

Seriously, Chris, it's great that you're putting this out on the ether. Hope we're helping someone somewhere. That Corey Webb is one smart guy!
