Hi Ian!

Perhaps not so clever <grin>, but I do share that partition with other, non
- NTFS computers. However, for kicks, I once saved a Ghost image to another,
NTFS partition. Ghost did not see that partition - or, perhaps I should say,
was not able to find the image file on that partition. Here's a question to
all: does Ghost (or Partition Magic or whoever) include NTFS drivers on
their "boot disks"? I am scared that they don't...

Best, Will


>> That's an interesting concept.  So you've created, or left in place, a =
FAT32 partition on the drive which is also home to XP?  And when you run =
Ghost, you save the image to to this FAT32 partition?

And you also copy the image to your USB drive, presumably as insurance?  =
Sounds like a cunning plan:--))
