Universal Network Boot Disk

Universal Network Boot Disk was designed to facilitate the creation and loading of system images in order to streamline and improve the OS installation process for the home user, as well as for administrators of large computer networks.

In other words, the application can be successfully used in performing network OS installations, which greatly reduces efforts and increases efficiency. With support for most CARDBUS and PCI adapters, the application is one of the top choices in OS deployment / recovery.

Universal Network Boot Disk, as any other similar utility, sports a certain degree of difficulty in configuring and using it. It’s mostly aimed at professionals, technicians and system administrators who worked with this type of software before.

As far as the installation process is concerned, there’s hardly a resemblance to most of the software a user is accustomed to. Universal Network Boot Disk relies on a collection of files and executables that don’t require deployment, but an advanced level of knowledge regarding the boot process.

In order to trigger its functionality, you should locate the BAT file inside the original folder and run it. This launcher, if we can call it that, contains all the instructions needed to create the boot disk with very little user intervention.

On the other hand, your knowledge is put to test when you actually start using the created disk. Since the application is menu-driven, you are required to adjust DHCP/Static settings, as well as domain and computer name. This is compulsory data, which cannot be skipped or furthermore, entered incorrectly, since it will affect the OS installation.

To sum up all of the above, Universal Network Boot Disk is a decent choice aimed exclusively at professionals who can make proper use of it. The rich documentation, together with the support forum can assist you if you in troubleshooting various issues.
