Embed valid BootIt BM credentials into the IFL boot disk

[PBuck0145]

-
The BootIt Bare Metal makedisk.exe program can embed the password into the BIBM boot disk, so that the user does not need to enter the credentials to use the programs on the disk.

Image for Linux can spawn a BIBM session, but asks for credentials on BIBM startup.

Can the Image for Linux makeHDD executable be configured to embed my valid BIBM credentials into the IFL boot disk?

Apologies if this is covered elsewhere. I could not locate any info on the subject.

you talking about partwork? You would use the "custom" option when
creating the boot disk, then it will ask.

For makeHDD (which is used to create IFL boot media from Linux), you need to run './setup' first, which will prompt you to optionally enter the BIBM name and product key. After that, any *custom* boot media created with makeHDD (use the /c option for custom version) will contain the BIBM name and product key. Note that './setup' has to be run first anyway, to extract the zip file containing makeHDD and the other Linux-related files.
