hi,

i have 8 PCs with identical hardware. They all have a hard disk of 20Gb. 
I've set up one of them as follows:
  1 Win 98 primary partition (16 Gb)
  1 Win 98 partition for storage purposes (1 Gb)
  1 Freebsd partition (3 Gb)

i thought that i'd spare a lot of time and trouble if i could ghost the hard 
disks. i have run Norton Ghost but it hasn't worked properly.
When describing the original disk it marks the fbsd partition file system as 
'unknown' and after ghosting, when i try to boot the fbsd partition on the 
destination disk, i get a "no ufs"..

my Q:
is it possible to ghost such a hard disk with Norton Ghost?
if not, is there some other ghost program that can do the job?

any pointer/info would be appreciated,
thanks a lot,
dimitri

PS > plz. CC any reply to me directly as i am currently off the list
:)
