That's a pretty old version of Ghost.
Have you tried it yet? How come?
"The proof is in the pudding" as they say.
So, make some pudding and let us know how it turns out. Eh?
A man with experience is never at the mercy of a man with an argument.

What file system? If Ghost doesn't understand the file system, I think it falls back to a sector-by-sector backup of the entire partition (free space and all), doesn't it?

Thanks for the reply.
If ghost 2003 works to clone the drive, I will have the app as well which is what I really need to know, even more so than Linux itself.
I forgot to take the new hard drive with me today, go back again on thursday.

Hello,
if you are looking for ghost for Linux it is on this
Bootable CD:
Last time I downloaded Partedmagic boot cd was 5 or 6 years ago
http://partedmagic.com/download.html
after i posted the link here I thought I down load the new ISO version 5.2
to see what is it like
first thing I noticed was that its size had increased from 35 MB to 120 MB
but I was surprised at the power of its wirless networking ability .
without adding any drivers it found all the wirless routers in the area .
and if there was any open it connected to it by just enter and enter on key board .
with my own router it asked for the key.
it connected once but had problem next time i booted.
if you have not down loaded it yet do it and have FUN .
I must say Linux has come a long way congragulations to all concerned .
of course you still got the powerfull Parted disk partitioner .
you also got
cloning linux ghost
and also cd burning software.
Regards Ben
