ABSTRACT:
A system and method for copying a run-time image independent of computer context from a source computer-readable medium to one or more target computer-readable media of a target computer. Software of the invention integrates the copied software product with the target computer. The software applies an operating system and/or associated application programs to the target computer as a run-time image.
