silent mode, the correct supervisor password
must be supplied to enable the chip,
otherwise the chip is not enabled.

Including Rescue and Recovery in a disk image

You can use your tool of choice to create a disk image that includes Rescue and
Recovery. This deployment guide provides basic information regarding
PowerQuest and Ghost as it applies to this application and installation.

Note:

If you plan to create an image, you must capture the Master Boot Record.

The Master Boot Record is critical for the Rescue and Recovery environment to
function correctly.
