Ghost 10.0 - Lenovo (IBM) Thinkpad
Mar 24th, 2008 at 2:43pm
 
I was doing some reading on here, and saw that there were some difficulties with copying a drive in Ghost 10.0 on IBM laptops.  I wanted to know if the same was true for the newer ones that are built by Lenovo.

If so, what's the best way to clone a drive using a single laptop + usb enclosure with Ghost 10.0?  Or, should I find and buy a newer or older version of ghost to use for this laptop?

Villain,

It's not related to the cloning software. The issue is with IBM laptops having 240 Head HD geometry and the USB HD being seen with 255 Head geometry. If you reverse clone, old HD installed in the USB enclosure and new HD installed in the laptop, this gets around the problem.
