3.2.4 Copying an installation set

It is easy to create an installation set that slightly differs from an existing installation set: simply copy and edit the existing installation set.

To use Administrator Tool to copy the already created installation set:

  1. Start Administrator Tool.
    The Startup Kit dialog box is displayed.
  2. In the Startup Kit dialog box, select the desired installation set (with the settings you want to copy) in the Installation sets list.
    You can select only one installation set. If you select more than one installation set, copying is impossible.
  3. Click the Copy button.
    The dialog box shown in Figure 3-4 is displayed.

    The characters that you can specify in the Installation set name text box have the following restrictions:
    • Available characters are the same as for directory names. You can use no more than 32 characters.
    • You cannot use the following characters: \, /, *, ", :, |, <, >, and ?
    • Since upper-case and lower-case characters are not distinguished, you cannot use names that become identical when they are converted from upper case to lower case or vice versa.
  4. In the Installation set name text box, specify the desired installation set name. Then click the OK button.
    The system returns to the Startup Kit dialog box. The new installation set with the copied settings is displayed in the Installation sets list. If an error message appears, correct the error as instructed by the message. Then click the OK button again.
