I thought I'd try a route different to ghosting C:\ out to a USB hd, and
then restoring that image onto a new hd,
i.e. booting from Norton 9.0 Ghost bootable cd 'cause is slowish.
So I tried the "Copy drive" on the Norton Ghost 9.0 windows interface, to
"copy drive" C:\ on hd0
to hd1's unallocated space (both SATA hd's).
On the options screen I ticked "Set drive Active" (for booting OS)
....there's a radio button in Primary Partition.
Drive Letter is set to None, 'cause C:\ is unavailable ?
....and I put a tick in "Copy MBR"
....now I left it "copying", and when I returned, the XP screensaver was on
but, I don't think it had rebooted, and I dutifully shut it down, and
unplugged hd0, rebooted from the "new" hd if you like, and got "NTLDR
Missing"
....anyone know how to use Ghost's Windows "Copy Drive" ?
