Hello,
I was wondering what is the DOS command to tell Ghost to load from a .gho file to a particular partition? If i use the mode=Pload with the image file as the source it gives an error that it expected a ":" in the src command. If i use mode=Load with the Source being the .gho file and the destination being dst=1:1 it comes up and tries to recreate the size of the partition. I tried the -szeE command and noticed it made the partition the same size as the partition already created, but all the other partitions did not show up in the drive information. Any suggestions? I have a computer with 4 partitions and would like to be able to load an image for just one partition at a time if needed. I know how to do it from within ghost but was trying to automate it via the dos comands.
Thank You,
dlv

Ok, you`ve got 4 partitions on 1 hard drive, C,D,E & F.
To restore C partion
ghost -clone,mode=pload,src=Cbup.gho:1,dst=1:1

for D restore as above but use
src=Dbup.gho:2,dst=1:2

& for F use
src=Fbup.gho:4,dst=1:4

to restore Fbup to the D partition
src=Cbup.gho:4,dst=1:2

ie in src=xxxx.gho:y the y refers to the partition number in the ghost image

and in dst=a:b a is the hard drive number & b is the partition number (C=1,D=2,E=3 etc)

Easy once you are used to it!
