Ghost Solution Suite

I am using the ghost exe from GSS 2.0

I can not find any info on what operating systems it supports other than windows.
Does anyone know?

I can provide a quote from page 541/542 of the Symantec Ghost implementation guide:

"Symantec Ghost has been tested with the following versions:
Red Hat up to version 9.0
Red Hat Linux Enterprise versions 3 and 4
Fedora Core up to version 5
SuSE up to version 10.1
Ubuntu up to Dapper Drake version 6.06

Symantec Ghost copies or clones any x86-based Linux system with full support for Ext2/3 file systems (type 0x83) containing 1 KB, 2 KB, or 4 KB block sizes. Other file systems, such as ReiserFS, are cloned on a sector-by-sector basis and cannot be resized during cloning."

If you have other questions in this area, I'm sure someone will be happy to jump in and answer them.

The thread subject says "Ghost version 11" but the thread starter says in he uses SGSS 2.0. Is Ghost versioon 11 and SGSS 2.0 the same?

Yes, that is correct.

There is often confusion between the consumer and corporate releases so I thought I would post a long answer as well.

Here's the recent release history of the Ghost product:

Corporate
Symantec Ghost 8.0 Corporate Edition (Ghost 8.0) - October 2003
Symantec Ghost Solution Suite 1.0 (Ghost 8.2) - November 2004
Symantec Ghost Solution Suite 1.1 (Ghost 8.3) - December 2005
Symantec Ghost Solution Suite 2.0 (Ghost 11) - December 2006

Consumer
Norton Ghost 2003 = (uses Ghost 8.0) -August 2002
Norton Ghost 9.0 (uses technologies acquired from PowerQuest) - August 2004
Norton Ghost 10.0 - (uses technologies acquired from PowerQuest) - September 2005
Norton Save & Restore (As above + file backup utilities) - February 2006

Norton Ghost 2003 used pretty much the same engine as Symantec Ghost Corporate Edition 8.0. After that, the consumer and corporate products use different engines. Obviously, this is where comparing the version numbers between the corporate edition and and consumer edition stops making any sense. If you are interested, there is more on that here: http://forums.symantec.com/discussions/thread.jspa?messageID=4481445&tstart=0#4481445

Thanks so much. That clears it.
