  • 1.  Create image of partition not disk from command line

    Posted Aug 17, 2012 05:22 AM

    hi, I have a VM WinXP machine running with 2 drives. I want to image the C: drive only from command line.

    If I use the following it captures the whole disk - can anyone shed any light on this.

    ghost\ghost32.exe -clone,mode=create,src=1:1,dst=P:\backup.gho -rb -sure

    ghost kicks off OK and starts imaging but only does the whole disk.

    Any ideas ?

    Joe.

    Ya, Herr Doktor, ve haf anozzer case of not reading ze manual.

    Check out Appendix A, P162 here:  ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/products/ghost/manuals/symghost_8/Ghost_ref_guide.pdf

    ie, you need pcreate instead of create
