Dear instadmg-users,
I am just starting out with InstaDMG. I have read the basic docu and created a vanilla-image that installs and runs fine.
But now I want to customize the image, so that it fits our needs and the images I have been building manually before. (things like set up admin user, install printers, customize User Template, customize login screen). I am sure that a lot of this has been done before by many others.
In the InstaDMG-download only 1 example script is included. Googling for more sample scripts didn’t give any results. Is there a repository? Or could you give me some links where to find example scripts. Those would help a lot and I would not have to reinvent the wheel all over again.
Thanks, kind regards, Herlind
Hey Herlind, Welcome!
Please state your guesses as you make your way toward your objectives, it helps people to know what you’re thinking and say ‘yes, that’s what you need to try, post the log or config file you’d find _here_” or “no, that’s not supposed to work”. Nate’s guide is also pretty comprehensive,

After the build is out in the world, people use different tools for configuration state management like Puppet and package management via a managed software update mechanism like Munki, but those are of course other products with different infrastructure requirements and learning curves. You can go pretty far with a SnowLeo build these days(Leopard has been in disrepair for a bit) so let us know where you are in your list and ask more questions! Thanks,Allister
