Hello Thunder On the keyboard: eureka
“How do I point to the ghost.exe and my ghost image?”
Yours example: ghost.exe - clone,mode=pload,src=cdr0001\ghost\backup.gho:1
Must be like this: ghost.exe - clone,mode=pload,src=X:\ghost\backup.gho:1
Here’s the full Autoexec.bat
This example having ghost.exe and backup.gho placed in EasyBoot\disk1\ghost (as you can see, an extra folder named ghost)
@echo off
MSCDEX /D:MSCD001 /L:X
PATH=a:\;a:\dos;x:\ghost
ghost.exe ghost.exe - clone,mode=pload,src=X:\ghost\backup.gho:1
Attention: In example above the “backup.gho”-file and ghost.exe is placed together in a separate folder named ghost (maybe more convenient?) Place (copy) this big folder “ghost” to EasyBoot\disk1
Create a bootable floppy and use my text in Autoexec.bat, showed earlier here in this topic. Use WinIso to make a bootable ima-file from floppy, save file with a name like ghost.ima Place ghost.ima in EasyBoot\disk1\ezboot use: run ghost.ima in EsayBoot as command
----------------------------------------
If you are able to use EasyBoot together with BartPe, and then open “My Computer”, and look for the letter on CD/DVD-reader that started EasyBoot, you will find that the name of that CD/DVD-reader probably is X:
The root-directory in EasyBoot is EasyBoot\disk1 (here you place your big ghost-backup-file - or in a separate folder named ghost - but remember to change path in Autoexec.bat).
EasyBoot\disk\ezboot is the boot-directory meaning: here you place boot-files like: XXX.ima (like ghost.ima), XXX.img, XXX.bin files and other stuff (background pictures and so on).
In my example I used WinIso to create a “ghost.ima” boot-file from floppy. This ima-file is placed in EasyBoot\disk1\ezboot and used with standard command in EasyBoot: run ghost.ima
I have created a subdirectory with commands in EasyBoot, pointing to different XXX.ima files. One for manually ghost (ghost.ima), one for creating a new ghost-backup-file ghostnew.ima, and finally one ghost file named goback.ima
Have a nice day...

To Gork
Nice piece of work you done there, especially with ability to use “NICs for network driver”.
Keep up the good work…

Hello,
This works for Boot CDs but should work for DVDs too.
1) Browse to the link below and use the very useful information there to create your boot CD.
http://members.ozemail.com.au/~rossstew/drs/bootcd.html
What you basically need is to lead ghost.exe so you can discard all the extra menus and build a boot CD that will just execute ghost.exe (get yourself a mouse driver and load it before ghost)
Cute mouse driver works for me.
http://cutemouse.sourceforge.net/
2) Use UltraISO to rip the boot information file from that CD (once you have tested it works fine). Save it somewhere (.bif)
3) Use the .bif file above in EasyBoot as run command.
Voila.
With Ghost Users Guide you can learn how to automate tasks using switches (in case you want to start directly imaging your drive or restoring from the DVD)

Sorry,
I forgot to mention that you have to place the .bif file in the ezboot folder and in the disk1 folder you have to place the ghost file plus the mouse driver.
PS: But if you use the information in point 1 in my previous message you really do not need EasyBoot for this task. EasyBoot would be better for creating a multi-boot CD that would launch Ghost, Acronis True Image and PowerQuest Drive Image, for example.
