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 :) _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
