Build a ReimageAny key, Deploy an Image to a PC, and get Started!

1. Follow the tutorials and instructions on building a ReimageAny thumb drive: https://my.k12panel.com/tools/reimageany

2. Boot off the new drive and deploy the image to a PC (careful - it will wipe the PC!)

3. The PC will pop up on the onramp. Adopt the PC and give it a Site and Asset class.

4. Activate the PC in Panel. Then reboot the PC and watch it go!
