Answer» Anyone know how i get to access my current C: and D: (2 partitions on the same physical disk) drives from using a Boot disk. As of now i can only use the A: drive and CDRom when i boot using a diskette.
My goal is to access Ghost.exe on the D: partition for the ability to create and restore an image.
Thanks for any help.im not sure if this will work but...
start D:\...\Ghost.exe /// edit: trash that idea dont workYe, the problem i have is that both of my partitions are NTFS.
Further notes are that i can use Barts NETWORK boot disk and map a shared resource ok and create and restore images to that location fine. That is also a NTFS volume on a win2k server, However this particular image NEEDS to go onto the D: drive of this MACHINE, and im struggling.u should have put that in ur first post...Only the newest versions of Ghost will access NTFS drives i thought...were these FAT32 at one time and converted to NTFS or were the Ghost images created in NTFS ? ?
Bart's PE has a Ghost plugin that will work as long as the ver. of Ghost you have supports NTFS...check Bart's site for the tool.
Then all you have to do is add the Ghost .exe to your bootable Bart's CD...I have resolved it now.
If its of interest to anyone, i used a tool called NTFSdos. I copied those FILES to a second floppy. I booted to dos from a 98 dos disk to the command line. I then ran the ntfsdos.exe on the second disk and it scanned for NTFS drives and mounted them and assigned C: and D: respectively thus allowing the ability to navigate and use these drives from the command line.Quote from: Brummie on April 19, 2007, 03:12:51 AM ... thus allowing the ability to navigate and use these drives from the command line.
I'm curious - is that read only , or can you both read and write to the NTFS drives?

Had a very quick look.
The first link appears to be read only in the freeware version. The second appears to be both read and write. Thanks.
