I've been using Ghost 2003 successfully to clone a bootable partition
to DVD-R. If I try restoring the partition to a partition on a disk,
it fails to boot. However, I can restore the partition to a whole
disk and it will then boot. I would like to be able to restore the
partition to the first physical partition on a disk, without loosing
the data on the other partitions. Do I need to use different software
or am I using Ghost incorrectly for my needs?
I have been using the Clone function in Ghost in the following way:
Clone the C: Partition to a DVD-R. The drive in question has at least
two partitions and the C: drive is the first physical disk.
I then boot from the DVD-R and restore the DVD-R as a Disk; restoring
as a partition leaves me with an unbootable system.
I am cloning Windows 2000 Pro & XP Pro.
I have too much data on the other partitions to make it practical to
clone them every time I want to clone the C drive; more than 200 GB.
Help appreciated.
