[QUOTE="gazzer82, post: 435791, member: 19962"] cheers karuzdo, Ideally it would be great to have the image on the same computer as the install so we can do a restore onsite if needed. Refit looks very interesting, but i think i have a solutuion. I have partitones the drive leaving a 50GB backup partitions, then using SetFile i have hidden it from finder making it pretty much invisible to the end user. Then i have installed a basic version of OSX on the backup drive along with NetRestore, and on this install i have hidden all toolbars e.t.c and placed the image folder, NetRestore and a PDF with instructions on the desktop. I think that will work, it's juts a pain having to install a whole os to do this,it would be great if there was something like the PE on windows to facilitate this. Cheers Gareth [/QUOTE]
