Script for input during Casper Imaging?

@alexjdale As per this article.

Running a script via Casper Imaging using $1 will return the mount path of the target drive (for example, /Volumes/Macintosh HD).

Does that help?

I have not done it from a USB stick, but I am already using a solution like this on our Restore partition. Rather than saving the information to the Mac and gathering/uploading the information with a post-imaging policy, my solution updates (or creates) the JSS computer record using the API.

Thanks for the tip @bentoms, I didn't realize that would work that way in Imaging. I'll have to try that out.

That said, I've come up with a working POC that lets me use Pashua to capture a bunch of information with one script immediately after the tech initiates the image in Casper Imaging, writing that data to the USB drive as a plist which gets copied over to the target drive after the block copy phase in a second script. After the reboot, another script reads in that data, renames the system, and performs the AD bind/configures wifi. One last script runs on startup after the final reboot to perform some system checks and then emails the tech with success/failure and status.

One main reason I wanted to do this was to remove the tech's need to ever log in with a local admin account. Once this process finishes, they can log in with their own credentials (granted admin via an AD group). We're making some pretty major changes to how we handle local admin accounts, and this was one important step.
