Hello experts,
I made a ghost image from an NTFS partition with over 90GB data. Let me describe this procedure in detail, because I think it might help: it first created a 17GB gho file (say, pers.gho) in my first backup partition (D:) and then the partition ran out of space, so I specified another partition (C:) to store the next segment, a 80GB ghs file (pers001.ghs) was created. During that time, I realized the partition C did not have enough space as well, so I cleaned up the first partition (D:) and made up some space. After partiton C ran out of space, I specified partition D again and the third file (pers002.gho) was created, about 4GB. And the dump finished successfully.
Later I decide to recover the data in these files. I used ghost64 to do that, but after about 18GB data was recovered, ghost told me an 'unexpected end of file' error was encounted (error code 10008) (since I chose lite compress when dumping my partition, it might be exactly what the first 17GB gho file contained) and cannot continue. I tried to check the integrity of the gho file and got the same result.
Then I tried to open the image files with GhostExp (version 11.5.1.2266), and it tolds me to select the last segment, but either pers001.gho or pers002.gho did not work, GhostExp just told me to select the last segment again and again =(
I also did a hex dump to these image files in the way described in this topic:<http://www.symantec.com/connect/forums/ghost2003-explorer-cant-handle-multiple-segments-spread-hd-and-dvd>. The dumped files are in the attachment. May this would help.
Since the partition I dumped is cleared, it is the only way for me to recover the data. Please help me. Thanks very much.
