TinyCore with Symantec Ghost using PXE

<< < (6/6)

genec:
I personally would do it via a dynamic remaster like my dynamic multimaster or dynamic remaster (and yes, I have a CPIO.GZ that contains the scsi .tcz and a lot of other kernel module extensions).

sebus:
In case anybody still interested in this.

ghost version 12.0.0.7026 available in trial symantec_deploymentsolution_7_6_x64.msi (only Windows based, but Linux executable is there!) works in 32-bit latest 6.1 core:

Download http://esdownload.symantec.com/akdlm/CD/MTV/symantec_sim_7_6_67_win_en.exe

Install filling whatever info, ignore SQL warning, no reboot, download the trial of Altiris Deployment Solution 7.6 (7.6.1395), extract ghost executables from msi saved in C:\Program Files\Altiris\Symantec Installation Manager\Installs\Altiris

Then one can copy the executable to core.gz following the guide:

edit:

Newer version of ghost 2.0.0.7031 is available in Symantec_deploymentsolution_7_6_hf1_x64.msi

sebus:
Ghost build 12.0.0.8019 (did not yet test it)


--- Code: ---Open this link (pref in IE11), no need to download anything
https://www4.symantec.com/Vrt/offer?a_id=32763
then download
http://esdownload.symantec.com/akdlm/CD/MTV/Symantec_Ghost_Solution_Suite_3_0_HF4.exe
--- End code ---

A new version of LessMSI has been released (v1.4), which adds Win10 support.
LessMSI allows extracting files from MSI files with a nice GUI, and can clearly display the contents inside the MSI.
7-Zip can also open MSI files, but in some cases (like the Ghost MSI) cannot display the contents properly.

sebus:
msi with Standard tools only


--- Code: ---http://esdownload.symantec.com/akdlm/CD/MTV/Symantec_Ghost_Standard_Tools_3_0_HF4.msi
--- End code ---

Ghost works fine in TC 6.4.1

sebus:
Linux executable is only 32-bit, so only works with TinyCore-6.4.1.iso, but NOT with TinyCorePure64-6.4.1.iso (pity)
