You mean G-Parted? That CD doesnt boot into command line so I cant use the norton Ghost with it or any other DOS program. I need a DOS based CD. Now Nero nero burning ROM can make such a CD but it is a huge program and too suffisticated. Norton Ghost can also make a booting floppy but my computer doesnt have a floppy drive...so I am out of options...
