Are you even able to save an image to the USB HDD? The error messages suggest that USB DOS drivers are not being loaded!
Quote:Device=oakcdrom.sys /d:nightowl
Error Message (No Drives found, aborting installation.)
That suggests that there are no IDE optical drives detected...and if *oakcdrom.sys* does not find any optical drives, then *mscdex.exe* will not be able to assign any DOS drive letters, and I would expect this error message:
Quote:mscdex.exe /d:nightowl /l:x /m:16 /v
Error Message (Device driver not found: 'nightowl'. No valid CDROM device drivers selected)
Quote:Device=usbaspi.sys /e /v
Error Message (USBASPI: Invalid Parameter String)
The above command line looks okay--is it possible that your system only has USB 1.x? You could try removing the * /e* parameter (that parameter forces the Panasonic DOS USB driver to only mount USB 2.0 controllers).
And, if *usbaspi.sys* is unable to mount any USB mass storage devices, then i would expect the following error message from *di1000dd.sys* which assigns DOS drive letters, but only to mounted USB devices:
Quote:Device=di1000dd.sys
Error Message (ASPI Manager not installed)

I doubt it.
Quote:Last question! I want to replace the version of Ghost, to Ghost32.exe and see if I could get better performance, but that file is 5mb in size. How could I fit that into the bootable CD limit of 2.44mb?
Ghost32.exe is not a DOS program--it's a 32 bit Windows based program--it has to run from a command window from within an active Windows OS. You can use Ghost32 to do any Ghost function from Windows--except it can not back up the Windows OS partition that it is running from.
There must be some other problem that is causing poor performance. When you use the Windows interface to set up Ghost, you are still closing Windows, and re-booting to DOS--and using *ghost.exe*--so it's not the Ghost program that's at fault!
Post the content of your [config.sys] and [autoexec.bat] files--and a list of boot files--maybe we can see a problem.
