How to Write Disk Images to
Dell OptiPlex FX130 and FX170
Thin Clients
This document describes how to create a re-imaged utility on a USB Flash
drive or CD/DVD and use it to write a disk image to your Dell OptiPlex
FX130 and FX170 thin clients.
The following hardware is required:
Windows or Linux system with access to the Internet
USB Flash drive with at least 2 GB of storage
Dell OptiPlex FX130 or FX170 thin client
Step 1: Creating the Re-Imaging Utility on a
USB Flash Drive or CD/DVD
The re-imaging utility is distributed as an ISO image. This ISO can be
used to create a bootable CD or USB key using third-party media
creation tools. After downloading the ISO, follow the instructions for
your media creation tool.
To download the Devon IT Re-Imaging Utility Dell Edition ISO, visit
support.dell.com
and navigate to the OptiPlex FX130 or FX170 pages.

Step 2: Retrieving the Disk Images
Visit
support.dell.com
to locate and download the latest operating
system image to re-image your OptiPlex FX130 or FX170 thin clients.
The OS disk images can be found on the product support pages.
The IT Re-Imaging Utility offers three ways to write the disk image. The
first option is to copy the disk image to a USB Flash drive or a
rewriteable CD/DVD. You can copy at least one disk image on your
flash drive if its capacity is at least 2 GB. The other two options involve
copying the disk image to an NFS or Windows share on your local area
network.
Option A: Saving the Disk Image(s) Locally to the USB Flash
Drive or a CD/DVD
To save the disk image to your Re-Imaging Utility drive:
1
Create a folder at the root of the USB drive called
Images
.
2
Copy the disk image(s) into that directory.

Option B: Storing the Disk Image(s) on a Network Share
Copy the disk image(s) to a Windows shared drive or NFS mounted
directory. The screenshot below shows an example of how to copy a disk
image to a Windows network drive called WES images.
Step 3: Using the Re-Imaging Utility to
Write the Disk Image to the Thin Client
Plug the USB key or a CD/DVD drive with Re-Imaging Utility into the thin
client. To run the Re-Imaging Utility, you must ensure that your thin client is
set to boot from the USB flash drive or CD/DVD drive instead of the
internal drive.

Select the option named
Hard Disk
(or the name of your flash
drive) and press <Enter>.
3
Select the second option called

and press <Enter>.
You will see a menu with an option called
Default
selected.
