Hi, sorry if this is posted elsewhere, but can anyone provide me with an easy step by step instruction on how I can make a bootable CD that runs Symantec's Ghost.  

I created a set of Ghost bootable floppies, but was only able to make a boot CD with only the first floppy disk.  I'm sure I'm missing something, but I don't know what.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That link has nothing to do with the problem at hand. I am experiencing the same problem.

I made an image of the first disk for ghost. I then open it up with UltraISO, and I see the files and directory structure. But when I try to copy Ghost.exe into the image, it keep saying "Disk Image is Full!!"

I am not able to change the proprety of the image, at least I don't see where can one change it.

I would greatly appretiate any help on this matter. Thank you.

Hello Wofly911, the above URL link works now.

Hello xoben,

I would like to thank you for your prompt reply, but I believe the link above does not solve my problem. I tried the the solutions provided in that post, but they don't seems to address my issue. I am starting to think that there is no solution to the problem at hand.

My problem is that Ghost 8 now creates 2 bootable floppies, the second one has the Ghost.exe which is 1.3mg by itself. I am trying to combine both floppies into one image so I can burn it onto a CD. After I make an image of the first floppy, I am not able to add the ghost.exe file for the program (UltraISO) will give me an error message saying that there is not space available to insert that file. I tried making an bigger image so it will fit the exe, but the program won't let me.

I greatly appretiate you reply for this post and any help that you can provide.

Hello xoben,

Thanks for the prompt reply once again, and sorry for taking forever for my reply.

I opened the image, but I was not able to burn it into the CD. The apps kept saying the image file is not valid.

But it's all good. We decided to play with Ghost Console, so we don't really have to boot from floppy or CD. If I get a chance, I will try to use that image file again.

Once again, I would like to thank you for your help.

The image at http://www.ezbsys.com/download/ghost8.img is a 2.88MB boot file, you can use it this way:
1) Start UltraISO
2) Choose 'New'->'Bootable CD/DVD Image' from main menu
3) Specify ghost8.img as boot file at the 'File Open' dialogue, and click 'Ok'
4) Add your .GHO files to the image area
5) Save to an ISO and burn
