Ghost Solution Suite

This is wierd to me, becuase nothing has changed.

I have been creating all my images with Ghost version 11.0.1.1533 via a plugin on an UB4WIN CD.

And just recently (again, nothing has changed!), my .gho and .ghs span files are maxing out at 4,192,300 KB.

In the recent past, about a month ago, they were maxing out at 2,097,137 KB

I have not changed or updated the ghost version, as its burned to CD and it's the same plugin, same everything.  Still using high compression, the same as always.

Please no replies about "why does this matter?", I need to understand this and possible reverse because of how we distribute our images files.

Thanks.

From the implimentation guide:

ghost.exe -split=200
This divides the image into 200-MB segments.  No need to understand just set them to the size you need ;)

If you were to be in the past mapping a drive to a network share then the ghost executable limits the file to 2 gigs.  Because it is a mapped drive ghost doesn't check the file system on the destination and assumes the worst and that this destinaion has a 2 gig cap.   if you are saving it to a local drive then the ghost executable can check the file structure and determine that if it is fat 32 that the largest file that can be handled by fat32 is 4 gigs.  

to elaborate further I guess we would need to know more details about how you are using ghost and where you are saving the files.  Or like it was suggested use the split= command to fource it to always be the size you would like (assuming the file system can handle that)

Cheers.
