How to ghost a dual boot 98 and XP drive ??
This is a discussion about How to ghost a dual boot 98 and XP drive ?? in the Everything New Technology category; Hey thanx for looking. I got a 80gb drive that i'd like to split into 2 partitions and have XP on 1 40gb NTFS partition and 98 on the other 40gb fat32 partition. Trouble is that when i imaged each partition i forgot to image the MBR and i lost the windows boot manager.
Hey thanx for looking.
I got a 80gb drive that i'd like to split into 2 partitions and have XP on 1 40gb NTFS partition and 98 on the other 40gb fat32 partition.
Trouble is that when i imaged each partition i forgot to image the MBR and i lost the windows boot manager. I tryed to reinstall the 2 images and used bootmagic but it moaned about NTLDB being missing. I've since used 3 other boot managers and still cant get both partitions to live happily together.
I had an idea about using the "image MBR" function of ghost, but it is not allowed when using partitions, only allowed when imaging an entire disk (10 CD's)
Has anyone managed to get XP (NTFS) and 98 (fat32) ghosted without imaging the entire disk ??
Even if you didnt use ghost, can you tell me how you did it please
I'm using
ghost 2002
partition magic 7
bootmagic 7
win 98se and XP pro.
Thanx in advance.
regards
