* 1. OVERVIEW
************************************************************
These scripts use the RSTCli (32/64) utility and
Windows(R) regedit.exe to enable content loading into the
NV cache of an accelerated volume. The scripts assume the
SRT volume has already been created. These scripts are merely
examples and should be altered in order to work within an OEM's
specific manufacturing process.
************************************************************
* 2. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
************************************************************
To run these scripts, the user must be in the 'Administrator'
account. Please reference the clireadme.txt
for further system requirements.
************************************************************
* 3. SCRIPT USAGE
************************************************************
The NV cache loading process is a two stage process (assuming
the SRT volume has already been created):
1. Registry and RST driver setup, reboot.
2. NV cache content loading, cleanup, and shutdown.
Steps for usage:
1. Create the following directory on the local drive:
C:\Intel
2. Copy the "NvCacheScripts" folder into the directory
created in step #1.
3. Copy the correct platform version of rstcli.exe into
the "NvCacheScripts" folder.
4. Edit the scripts to make sure they call the correct
accelerated drive and rstcli utility.
5. Run the script "step1_RegistrySetup.bat" from a command
prompt. Depending on the operating system, might have to
open the command prompt shell in "Administrator" mode.
6. The scripts will prompt the user to continue after each
stage has finished.
