Well...

the knife was unsheathed and I almost went thru with it before I realized I haven't seen Superman Returns in IMAX yet. Damn.

So blasting the image failed. Turns out if the Ghost Console is installed on the client machines, Windows 2000 Server images go kaput. So here it is Saturday, and I get to come into the office to perform the following:

1. Using a Norton Ghost disc, remove the Norton Ghost Client from 16 machines.
2. Using a Ghost boot disc, reboot the machines and prepare them to accept an image from a server.
3. Using the GhostCast server, select the image and specific NTFS partition I want to blast, then tell the server to accept clients.
4. One by one, go to each machine and tell it to receive the image from the server.
5. Start the blast.
6. Upon completion, reboot all the computers, which at this time now successfully accepted the image.
7. One by one, login and rename each computer (because without the Norton Ghost Client, they can't rename themselves after accepting an image).
8. Go home, die, then go to the theater to play drums (only 2 performances of Godspell left!).

On top of this, I am currently ill, which means I am SO much fun to be around right now.

Oh, and I am still not a millionaire. Crap.

My apologies to my non-computer savvy friends for the techno-speak, but I don't have the energy to translate it right now. Here's an aid to help you.

My heart soars as I think about the end of next week when I have to manually re-image all those machines again.... SIGH.
