<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've done NT 4 before with ghost 2001 and it
worked. I tried to ghost a fedora core 3 box with ext3 and it wouldn't work at
all.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I bought the new version ghost 9.0 with ghost
2003, used ghost 9.0 I believe and it worked.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So long story short I wonder if it's something to
do with the version you're using</FONT></DIV>

color=#0000ff size=2>Ok.. I've learned my lesson. dd is a good thing and
ghost is bad. Question though... I imaged 2 NT 3.51 machines. Just read the
image off the drive with ghost and didnt do anything else. Now I'm getting
the famous inaccessable boot device error on both. After imaging the drive
no less! Does anyone know what ghost did to the drive that makes NT choke?
I've never seen this before with ghost. Also, I imaged an NT4 system and had
no problems at all. Weird....</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm looking for decent drive imaging software

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've used ghost before, but apparently it has
some issues with OS/2. dd worked fine for the OS/2 system I had to image,
but I'm thinking there has to be a way for dd to restore to a drive of a
