Title: USB support in Ghost 2003 (Bootable CD)
Post by jaym52 on Nov 5^th, 2005 at 12:07pm

Hi,

I tried creating a startup (bootable) CD with USB support from within the Ghost 2003 program; but the disk (CD, transferred files from Floppy Disk to CD) does not sseem to work.

Would appreciate help on this with somewhat detailed / step-by-step instructions, as I am not too technically oriented.

Thanks,

For a step-by-step Guide on making a *bootable CD*--with or without a floppy drive--see here:

I have a working std Norton 2003 Boot Disk CD (made using the program's native wizard interface) but this does recognize any external USB devices (in my case an IDE Hard Disk Drive).

Is there any way to modify the Std Disks to make Ghost recognize USB devices. (Similar to the Projects #s 2 & 3 at the page quoted:

Thanks,

That would be an internal IDE drive mounted ina USB casing.
