HP image writing utility?

[Don Vanco - Linux Ninja]

Sorry to have to post this here, but I cannot seem to find this on the HP site....

HP has a (Windows) utility for writing image files to a variety of media, but I don't recall where I saw the reference or where to grab it - can anyone assist?

I have dd for Windows (http://www.chrysocome.net/dd - and that works for me) but most times I am supporting those more.... challenged than I and a purpose-built utility would be better...

TIA
Don

Shalom Don,

You aren't getting any help from HP posting to a peer to peer forum that HP provides for customer to customer support.

There is a windows forum in which you might get a recommendation of a third party product that works on your OS. I'm simply a bit mystified why you thought posting to a Linux forum would provide help on this issue.

Try posting here.

OK, well, does it matter that I'm writing diskboot.img to a flash device so I can install RHEL from an NFS share??

To add apparently needed clarity -

This is a utility that, at one point, HP provided as part of LINUX downloads for installation of firmware via bootable media. I thought it was referenced in an older iLO update, perhaps I will just have to keep digging into older LINUX PSPs till I find it myself....

You might take a look at the Smart Start Scripting Toolkit for Linux. The toolkit can be booted from PXE CD/DVD media, or USB drive key
