Hi Dave,

OK - since you can run Ghost if you boot manually, Ghost does not conflict with hardware.

What do you mean by crash? Does it dump any information or it just reboot to Windows.

What network template you use in Console for these clients?

Probably it is not crashing, but just reboot the machine to Windows. If the console client does not find a valid network connection, it reboots to Windows to avoid getting stuck in DOS. When you step through F8, did you see any errors when loading the network driver?

In your first post you said it is working if you use another NIC. Probably, the dos driver selected for the machine is not compatible wtih the card. What network driver is used for the client? If double click the client in Console and go to Client tab, it will show you the selected driver, and you can change it too.

Hi Dave,

You said in your first post that it is an IBM M52 machine. I will try to find a similar machine and see if I can re-produce this issue.

Did this work before you upgrade to GSS 2.01?

Hi Dave,

I have seen another customer who has the same issue, and trying to re-produce it here. In the mean time, if you like please try adding a delay, it should work.

Adding a delay could be done be editing the DOS template in Console. To do that,

Run Ghost Boot Wizard
Select drive mapping boot disk
Select the network template you use, and select copy
It will create a copy of the template with (2) postfix. So your original template could be keep intact.
Select that copy, and select modify
Select Advanced, and add a DOS wait program. This will add to the \Net directroy.
In Autoexec.bat window, add something like
\net\wait 15
Select this new template for the client and try the task.

If you want more details on this please let me know.
