Possibility to change boot menu?

Possibility to change boot menu in PXE Server?

Hi,

first of all: We are testing Snap Deploy 2.0 for a customer of us. If all is going well, the customer will buy some licenses of Snap Deploy and Universal Deploy (around 150 licenses each)...

We have successfully created an image and are also able to deploy this image across multiple subnets usind a workaround. But after the deployment the client hangs in the bootmenu at every start...


Is there a possibility to change the bootmenu of the PXE Server so that the user can normally start his workstation all times?

At the time there are 3 options:

- Snap Deploy Agent
- Image Creator
- Windows

We would like to have an option to say that Windows shall automatically start within 2-5 second and not the Deploy Agent or the Image Creator...

Does such a solution already exist to change the bootmenu?


Thanks in advance.

[Edit]

We found a solution by ourselves. Here is the possible sourcecode of the new bootwiz.cfg:

[C1]
VGA VESA
MBRCRCS ON
INITRD F1.BIN /S
KERNEL F2.BIN quiet
[C2]
VGA VESA
MBRCRCS ON
INITRD F3.BIN /S
KERNEL F4.BIN quiet
[continue]

sysboot /active

[bootmgr]
echo Druecken Sie F11 fuer das Acronis Boot-Menu...
default continue
delay 20
bootmenu 389
quiet on

With this bootwiz.cfg it is possible to get a message "Druecken Sie F11 für das Acronis-Menu" at startup. When the user hits F11, the user comes to the Acronis Menu, when the user does not hit F11, Windows continues to start...
