Network bootdisk for Ghost

S

stev379

We're removing Novell and need to create new bootdisks to
copy our images up and down from network servers. Maybe
I'm not checking the right spot, I've looked on
bootdisk.com and haven't found what I'm looking for.

I just need to create disks that boot to DOS installing
the network driver so we can run the images. Any
suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks!

Ghost can create its own boot disks, if I recall correctly (it's been a
while). You'll need to make sure the hardware is as close to identical as
possible in order for it to work right, particularly as concerns the NIC....

Version 7.0.0.245 of Ghost.
I created a bootdisk and the driver loads, but I get a bad
command or filename on the Net Use command. Saved that
command to the floppy and get a message that the "program
cannot be run in DOS".

Right. I'm able to create the disk in Ghost v7, but the
net use command isn't found once the machine is booted.
Even if I save net.exe to the floppy I run into errors
that "this program can't be run in DOS". How can I map a
drive with the net use command?

I did this only once before, but I don't remember having to use net use at
all to get the image downloaded from the ghost server.... Any particular
reason you're doing it?
