Just because it was brought up..... Can Norton Ghost, run from a floppy be used to clone a FreeBSD disk?=20 (SCSI -> SCSI) -Grant ----- Original Message -----=20 From: Brown, Steve=20 To: Richard Rice ; freebsd-questions@freebsd.org=20 Sent: Wednesday, May 23, 2007 12:31 PM Subject: RE: Cloning I clone Thinkpads all the time with G4L. I haven't used G4U but from = what I gather it's what G4L is based on (either the code or the concept = - not sure). You can clone everything including the recovery partition no problem. The only snag I've run into doing this is with some of the older = systems that shipped with a 15 head hard disk. You can clone them all = you want but it has to be to another 15 head disk. Same limitation = applies regardless of the cloning software. I usually use an ftp server to store and retrieve the images but I've = done it direct to the new drive via a USB enclosure also.

The T60 comes with a recovery partition. First I killdisk the drive, re-install Windows XP. Then I want to capture an image with G4U so = that I can clone other T60 machines. Is this possible with G4U? My present imaging software, Imagecaster, fails.
