    New to fog…2nd day here and still trying my best to learn this and keep up. We have a ton of different makes and models in our environment and I was thinking about doing a hardware independent image and use like 1 image rather than 20. Is this worth it? I’m having a hard time grasping how I accomplish this?

    For example, Ive installed Windows 7 already on a machine and did some baseline OS configs…but should I be installing the drivers? I can’t do windows updates without the nic drivers for example. However If I do the drivers than that jacks up the image for when I upload it to FOG.

    Anyone have some steps for me or direction??

          no need to bloat your image with drivers

          model way (just look at driver stuff):
          [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/utilizing-postscripts-rename-joindomain-drivers-snapins.12175/[/url]

          or Hardware ID way (also has a wiki page posted):
