Using Notebooks:
Situation: Repairing Hardisks/Operating systems, Cloning hardisks,
backingup hardisks using USB Hard-drives.
Problem: Using floppy drive to boot DOS or programs is very slow. Example
Windos XP rescue disk consists of 4 diskettes. Further floppy disk has read
errors after long storage.
Using Bootable Flash Drive - seen as Drive C (W98 Dos) and thus in notebook
(Dell D820) with internal hard-drive a maximun of two hard-disk is seen. USB
Hard-drive cannot be seen in Ghost 2003. If boot from Floppy Drive the USB
Hard-drive is seen as physical drive 2.
Wish: Make Bootable Flash Drive behave has Floppy Drive: Place XP Rescue
program in Flash drive - booting a lot faster.
Alternative: Boot from CD-ROM - How to make bootable and place programs
there. XP's Create Rescue does not create it CD format. Also when booting
from CDDrive it will be seen as Drive C:
I would appreciate comments and guidance or pointers.
