Title: Can you restore without wiping out other partitions in Ghost 2003?
Post by ericfree1 on Aug 5^th, 2008 at 6:30pm

I did one restore to a hard drive.
This hard drive had two partitions. I wanted to restore to one partition and leave the other one intact. I didn't see an option for this. Can it be done in Ghost 2003? If not, then in the latest Ghost version (14.0)?

In Ghost 2003, it depends on how the Image was created:

Disk to Image will restore Image to Disk.

Partition to Image will restore Image to Partition and you have the option to select which partition to restore to.

Actually, you can do single partition-only restores of images you created with disk-to-image too, you get the option of which of the partitions in the image to restore.

And the latest "Ghost Version" isn't 14.0 at all, the low-end consumer products sold as "Norton Ghost" are a completely unrelated product to genuine Ghost, the latest version of which is version 11.5, sold in Ghost Solution Suite 2.5.
