Commands

bash prompt or the ZENworks

The ZENworks Imaging Engine is installed to the /bin directory on the imaging boot device. If the
imaging boot device is a diskette, a CD, or DVD, the /bin directory is actually archived in the root
file, which is expanded during the imaging boot process. If the imaging boot method is Preboot
Services, the ZENworks Imaging Engine is downloaded to the device when booting.
Because the ZENworks Imaging Engine is a Linux application, the command syntax is case
sensitive. The overall syntax is:
img [mode]
where mode is any of the modes described in the following sections:

Section E.2, "Automatic Mode (img auto)," on page 618

Section E.8, "Dump Mode (img dump)," on page 629
Section E.9, "Information Mode (img info)," on page 630
