Updated the Guide to Norton Ghost

Updated the Guide to Norton Ghost. This is the site's single most requested feature. Also updated the accompanying PDF files. These hadn't been updated for over a year. They require a little more effort. Been receiving a lot of requests for that [updated PDF files].

I didn't want to update them until I updated the guide .. which is now done. There's even an online HTML version with a black background, which some folks find easier on their eyes.

I have a recommendation for folks with a new computer that has no floppy drive and a single drive with NTFS partition. Get on a machine that has a floppy and a cd burner, so that you can make a bootable CD from floppy image. I suggest you use the readily available Win98SE floppy image that creates a small ramdrive.

You can then start Ghost 2002 with the -afile=X:, where X: is your ramdrive. With this in place you will have a way to capture the abort file if something goes wrong with Ghosting to CDs.
