If you use the *-noide* switch, than any HDD or optical drive hooked up to a *IDE* controller will probably not be available in Ghost.
Thanks NightOwl
Im sure you are right, but if i don't use noide parameter, the boot floopy disk don't work.
I tested this. First, i made a norton ghost standard floopy without parameter. I reboot the system, the floopy boot and load the ghost, but don't works.
Then, i made a second norton ghost standad floppy ( i still use Norton Ghost 2003 ), i wrote "-noide" in parameter field and reboot the system. This time, the floopy works
I could see the ghost application running, and explore the SATA HD with NFTS .
But, as you say,
i don't see any IDE optical drive.As i wrote in my first post, i tried to make a floppy with DVD CD Support and then this works.
Problem
: this requires 2 diskettes... and i cannot make a CD because i don't kwow to do it
I tried to do a Boot CD/DVD with files of CD/DVD Support using Nero. Don't works.
Then i have some troubles floating on air. How to do a CD/DVD bootable that load Norton in SATA HD and recognize a IDE optical drive. I think with this,
i will have a first solution to start the work. Really, i didn't think that use Norton was so complicated
I know that I am asking much, thanks to all people of forum
EDIT:
I find this googling:
Quote:You need to use the first disk of the set to make the CD bootable, then burn the GHOST.EXE program to the ISO portion of the CD. You'll need to edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files to have CD support after the CD boots, then you can access the rest of the CD. I haven't done this with GHOST, but I've created several MS-DOS bootable CD's with lots of stuff on the ISO file-system that is accessable after I boot the CD.
Perhaps its a solution? ???
