Hi!
I made a bootable Ghost CD with some instructions on some website. It is basically a DOS bootdisk with an autoexe.bat file pointing to Ghost.exe.
Now, I'm wondering if there is anyway to make a partition that works similar to my CD: boot to Ghost.exe. If so, how?
"How do I?"

Let's us first see the instruction you're following. How do you expect us to help you if we don't know its content & direction.

If you can afford to purchase software, i highly recommend these 2 products. I use FirstDefense and have 7 bootable snapshots. Some are used to take me back in time incase of recovery, others for testing programs and one is strictly a 'Gaming' snapshot.

It's basically just a tutorial on how to make a bootable CD to use Norton Ghost (Ghost.exe, the DOS version)
What I want, is to create a new partition where the Ghost image will be. This is easy and I know how to.
Now since I'll be having that partition, why not having Ghost in that drive, this way I can run Ghost and restore or create another image without the need of a CD/DVD.
I'd take a wild guess and do the following with my limited knowledge:
Install a DOS version to this new partition, and to make it more automated, load Ghost automatically through autoexec.bat
I have a rough idea that I'll try on a virtual pc... so I'll come back later.
Any help?
