What if I have an existing drive with formatted as NTFS: will ZENworks 7 understand accessing (reading/writing) that because it uses Linux and NTFS is only recently being supported with WRITE capability. The ZENWorks booting process (CD or PXE) has historically had a great deal of lag-time with support for devices in Linux (e.g., Broadcom Gig NetExtreme PCI card isn't supported) Does the external USB hard drive HAVE to be formatted as EXT2?

Users have been reporting this problem with Zenworks Imaging since Dell released the Optiplex GX280 line. It's intermittent and "not recognized" as an issue with Novell. If you wipe the drive - you only need to let it run for a minute or so - and then try imaging it should work. The previous issues that were reported involved both USB keys, hard rive and connections directly to the server for imaging.

Now all of sudden we get SYSTEM ERROR 30 when we attempt to create the image on the drive. I've reformatted the drive, it shows up when you run IMG and look in the disk part. area. I can mount the drive but can the image to save. Any thoughts...... We were doing this for months without any problems.
