    Hi Guys

    I'm having a problem creating a ghost image over to my external usb drive.

    When I reboot with the ghost boot floppy disk, it does not recognise the external drive.

    Im trying to create an image of my XP pro 20Gb IDE (ntfs) hard drive over to my external Lacie 500Gb (ntfs) usb 2.0 drive.

    Has anyone had any problems or experience creating an image over to a usb drive before.

    Any advice is appreciated.

    Cheers
    TC

    does your bios support booting up on external usb devices?

    In the bios I only see the normal boot options (floppy, cd-rom, hd)

    I've created my Ghost boot floppy disk, and selected usb 2.0 drivers for the disk.

    This time when I rebooted into the ghost dos program, it does recognise the external hard drive when it's loading, but then freezes at the Ghost gui interface. :(
