Your command line's *mode=restore* means restore whatever image that's indicated as source to the entire destination disk--filling it--as you have described. So, this would be *image to disk* restore.
I believe, if you want Ghost to only restore *partition to partition*, leaving the rest of the destination disk as is, you need to use *mode=prestore*.
And, even though your source image file may be of only 1 partition, if I read the FAQ correctly, you still need to indicate which partition you are restoring from the source image file for correct syntax--so, by default, a single partition image file will have only *1* partition, and the syntax is: *,src=image_c.GHO:1,*.

*load* = restore
*dump*= create
*pload* = prestore
*pdump*= pcreate
Apparently both old and new switch names will work interchangeably!
