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.

Eureka,
I followed your post to the T. the system boots up with the CD and the autoexec runs, and my CD Rom is X. However when it tries to run x:\ghost.exe it comes back Bad command or File name. When I dir the x drive nothing is there, however in windows I see that there is 4.12 GB on the DVD but Still I cannot see anything in windows either. Any Ideas?

Quote: ”when it tries to run x:\ghost.exe”. Make sure that you only have this in autoexec.bat
@echo off MSCDEX.EXE /D:tomato /L:X PATH=a:\;a:\dos;x:\ghost ghost.exe (if wanted, followed by switches)
Do not set this command in autoexec.bat “x:\ghost.exe” I just tested, and the system “went out in space”.
Quote: “cannot see anything in windows either”. Well I don’t now how you created this DVD. But if having winrar you should be able to see inside iso-file (created by EasyBoot). Inside this iso-file, ghost-folder and ezboot-folder normally is visible – (if using winrar to open iso-file).
Note: If ghost image is larger than 2 000 Mb, you could be in trouble. I don’t think ghost supports images larger than 2000 Mb (~2Gb).
Please test with only starting ghost without switches, to see if ghost start. Use only this in autoexec.bat
@echo off MSCDEX.EXE /D:tomato /L:X PATH=a:\;a:\dos;x:\ghost ghost.exe
Regards eureka

Hi , all friends, i've a problem but, i think it is basic operation of easy boot. i want to add ghost to menu ezbsystem. ( no need to automatically run ) i made this step 1. Make Directory Ghost to easyboot\disk1\.. as " easyboot\disk1\ghost"
2.Add ghost.exe ( it is sure Dos Version ) easyboot\disk1\ghost \...as "easyboot\disk1\ghost\ghost.exe"
3.Make with boot.ima by using bootmec & edit using with winamage to autoexec.bat as
@echo off
MSCDEX.EXE /D:tomato /L:R PATH=a:\;a:\dos;R:\ghost ghost.exe
And save as with ghost.ima into easyboot\disk1\ezboot\... as "easyboot\disk1\ezbbot\ghost.ima
4.At ezb menu, i add menu ghost and command as " run ghost.ima"
5.make cd
But Boot From CD " Errloading myboot.ez " is show and can't boot.
Thats all , i think i miss one step of making process, making directory of ghost. Is't need to declare on other files? Such as "replace to......?
Help me pls. Sorry for my idiot question. Tesla

Hi, surfing the net I realized that maybe your program is part of the solution I´ve been looking for.....with a little help, of course. I have a new HP 9500t notebook with SATA hdd that windows XP installation disk and norton ghost (for DOS) cannot "see"...I want to know if it´s possible to create a boot cd where I can "insert" the chipset drivers for my SATA controller (intel ichm8), so I could run ghost from cd and make a backup image or install windows XP in a "normal" way. I apologize for my poor english, my mother tongue is spanish. Thanks for any help you could provide. Pepe
