Hi Guys,

Following my recent work in cloning a hard drive to a new drive in THIS THREAD, please see the following guide that, along with the advice on CF, I found invaluable.

Cloning a hard drive with Norton Ghost 2003

Thanks for the link Gav

Just had a look at the website, so besides cloning a HD you can clone directory's as well?
Hmmm I have always used drive image by powerquest but the downside was you always had to go back into DOS. But Nortons Ghost looks like it works in windows environment?

 

Thanks, UCM.

Not quite, but almost feels like it. Once you confirm all your selections, the machine reboots to DOS and you get the screen you see in screenshot 7 in the Bay-Wolf guide. When done, it returns itself to Windows again.

It's a useful screen when you're at the machine, but bearing in mind I was doing this remotely on a machine 30 miles away, and could only await it responding to a ping [machinename] -t from the DC, you can imagine I was nervous as hell

 

Thanks! Perhaps a guide to making an image server? :P

 

Thanks for sharing
