Multiple registry locations may be specified with multiple

 

 

instances of this switch.

Following is an example of command line use:

GHSTWALK /BV=1:2 /AV=1:1 /AV=2:1 /CN=”WS4-<RANDOM_HEX>-443”/SURE

The above command line does the following:

Updates the Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, XP, or 2000 installation located on the second partition of the first disk.

Updates file systems on additional volumes on the first partition of the first and second disks.

Changes the computer name to one starting with WS4- and ending with - 443, placing random hexadecimal values in the remaining spaces until the new name is the same length as the old one. For example, WS4-53ADF76- 443.

Does not prompt the user for final confirmation.
