Honestly, the reason I’m interested in it is - just because. Haha. The extra reboot certainly isn’t the end of the world. I would technically save a bit of time, but it’s more an excuse for me to learn more about how FOG works, and how PHP works, so I’m just playing with it when I have extra time (which isn’t very often). I don’t actually use snapins to deploy software - I have a lot of VBS that pulls info from active directory and deploys software from a networked drive based on that information.
Lee, I actually have been working on your post – I don’t have it in production yet, but I still have to fiddle around with buildroot. Although, I’m not sure I’ll need to - I think sed is actually included in whatever build of init.gz I have.
