Hey,
I'm currently prepping for a big re-imaging project this summer for about 4000 MacBooks. To try to make this smoothing I'm testing the auto-run function, but have one slight problem...
Most of our computers HDs are named MacintoshHD, but some are Macintosh HD, with a smattering of other names as well. If I set MacintoshHD as the target drive name in Casper, those machines work, but others get an error. Is it possible to use some kind of variable so I can specify something like Macintosh%HD to catch BOTH MacintoshHD and Macintosh HD? We'd deal with the non-standard names individuallly, but at least this would catch most of our drives.
Any thoughts?
Jeff

Jeff,
Have you thought about a preflight script that renames the hard drive?
#!/bin/bash
for disk in `bless --getboot` ; do
diskutil rename ${disk} "Macintosh HD"
done
exit 0
Not tested just a quick example
