Well, here in the computer graphics lab we use Painter 6.1, and OS 9.2.2 with multiple users… but the student user sometimes has a permission problem when painter wants to write to the HD, so I thought "Ok, I'll just make disk copy images and give the students access to them"
but right now Im trying to make it a little faster incase I have to do this to all the computers [dont ask me why some of em have permission while others dont; they [the computer setups] all came from one disk image we stuck on the server while we were setting everything up]So I made this Apple Script to make the disk images for me… quote:
tell application "Finder"
display dialog "What is the exact name of the startup hard drive?" buttons {"Okey"} default button 1 default answer "TuHS_124_L"
tell application "Disk Copy"
activate
create "Painter temp " saving as file startup disk ":Users:Student:Startup Items:Painter temp .img" logical blocks 1024000 filesystem compatible Mac OS Extended with zeroing and leave image mounted ¬
end tell
end tell
I either need to make it so I can just enter the computer's number [in the field created by the default answer], or make it so that it can just use the startup disk…Thanks ^_^ If I open my window all the bugs will get in…That's just one more reason to use a Mac!
