Hello GenesisBoy

Quote: ” lost all my CD's of Panasonic Notebook”. Well I can’t help you with this stuff, that’s far behind my capabilities, but I can help you to create a bootable CD without using any floppy unit (I suppose you have some “burning tool” to create this CD?).

Please, download “Winimage 6.10” and use this tool to create and/or to edit image files.
Download link: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/gvollant/download.htm (scroll down to you find “Winimage 6.10”.

With this tool you won’t need any floppy (nice tool to have in your case).

You can easily extract and/or insert files in images with this tool.

Extract downloaded bootmec.exe (use winrar or similar). Inside you will find bootmec.IMA this is all you need.

Open bootmec.IMA with winimage, delete earlier named files to create some extra space, and then extract Autoexec.bat and Config.sys to some temp folder. Make changes to Autoexec.bat and Config.sys, and insert them back to bootmec.IMA.
Finally, insert folders and files named earlier in this topic. When done, rename bootmec.IMA to ghost.ima.

Copy or move ghost.ima to EasyBoot\disk1\ezboot
Use  run ghost.ima  as command in EasyBoot as usual.
Burn your bootable CD and your problems are solved (or at least you now have a bootable CD with Ghost).

I have deleted support according to floppy unit (as you probably already have noticed!) We don’t need floppy support, because you even don’t have a floppy unit!

will give you the bootdisks.

Sometimes you can find things that may have been moved by backspacing to the next "/" along the url and seeing what you can find

Yes you have right there, but people are “lazy” (He, he like myself) or shell I say “confused” (as you can notice in topic). It seems they need links that works at once and without problems.

Thanks anyway.

Step 1. Download ”Windows Me Custom, No Ramdrive” from here: http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm
Use right mouse button on “bootmec.exe” and with help of your Zip-program (Winrar?) you choose: “Extract to bootmec”. Note: You might receive a “diagnostic error” when doing this – but it’s okay.
You now have a new folder named “bootmec” and inside of this you have image-file “bootmec.ima”. We are going to edit this one.

Step2. Download and install WinImage from here: http://www.winimage.com/winimage.htm

Step 3. Open “bootmec.ima” with winimage and choose to “Extract” autoexec.bat to some folder (use this new folder “bootmec”) Keep winimage running, don’t close it. Open extracted Autoexec.bat in folder “bootmec” (use right mouse button and choose to edit).
Edit Autoexec.bat to look like this (delete other text):
(Note: leave out the switch “–sure” if you want to being prompted to continue cloning or only use ghost.exe if you want to run ghost without switches).

@echo off

MSCDEX.EXE  /D:tomato /L:X
PATH=a:\;a:\dos;x:\ghost
ghost.exe -clone,mode=load,src=X:\system.gho,dst=1:1 -fx -sure –rb

;>----- End of text -----<

Save your edited Autoexec.bat
Note: This cloning method reboots (-rb) computer automatically when done.

Now “pull” autoexec.bat back to the still running winimage. Answer yes to question!
When done, use the option “Save as” (with the name ghost.ima or whatever). Note: make sure to save this “ghost.ima” to EasyBoot\disk1\ezboot
Attention: Make sure to use “ima” and not “imz” at the end of file name when saving image file in winimage. Must be ghost.ima AND NOT ghost.imz

Step 4. Create a folder with the name ghost in EasyBoot\disk1  
Put Ghost.exe in folder Ghost. It should now look like this: EasyBoot\disk1\ghost\ghost.exe
And like this EasyBoot\disk1\ezboot\ghost.ima (and some more of your stuff of course).

NOTE!!! You cannot use Ghost32, only Ghost.exe intended to be used in DOS-environments. Ghost v.8 works fine and supports NTFS.

As usual in EasayBoot, use the command: run ghost.ima

Create ISO and burn it to media of your choice (CD-RW?). As you can notice: no need for floppy.

Happy Holidays!

Here are two template for running a DOS gui based Ghost v7 and another for either Ghost 2003 or Ghost 8.2. Just use Winimage to open it and then inject or drag and drop the GHOST.EXE file into the open img file. They are the same thing except one image is made to handle the bigger size of Ghost v2003 and v8.2. Everything else should be the same.

My ghost image is larger than one CD so I have place the other image on another CD for a total of 2. The CD boots fine and ghost launches but when ghost gets finished with the first image on the CD it doesn't ask me to put in the other CD but rather just tells me user aborted and brings me to a C> prompt. What command do I need so ghost will prompt be for the other spanned image which is on the 2nd CD?

Im sorry but I dont have an answer. I based the image on someones elses floppy image.

I dont know the command to do what you ask. I think the CD options are if you only have 1 CD with one single image and not a spanned one. If someone has a command that I could add I can add to the Floppy image please let me know and I will add it and update the image.Thanks.

Sorry D8TA!
