Norton Ghost
« on: July 31, 2003, 10:01 »
I used Norton Ghost this morning for the first time.  I have have a shiny new floppy disc, but haven't a clue what's on it, or what do do with it!

What next?  I thought I could create a CD back up of my PC, but I don't seem to have that option, unless I'm missing something.

@Simon
Boot grom the floppy and run "ghost,exe" this will start the Ghost program and will ask you which drive you want to image, select your C: drive and tell the program where to save the image to (it must be saved to another partition or drive), the program will the create an image of your C drive in that location

To make a Recovery CD you must burn that image to a CD-R/CD-RW if you want to restore a drive, boot with the floppy and select image to drive, select the CD image and tell it to restore to IDE 0 which should be the first drive on your PC

Thanks (again) Brian!

I only have one partition at the moment, so this looks like it could be a fairly major operation.  I'll have to wait until I am in the right frame of mind for something like that!   ;D ;D
