Norton Ghost 12 Dos Version Check
Hi dunroin, Welcome to the forum, I am a Ghost 12 user but before we start to answer your post I think you need to read this thread and instructions from BrianK and read it all through. Ghost 12 doesn't have the option to clone a drive as such, that option is replaced by the 'copy a drive' function.
A Norton Ghost version for Novell NetWare (called 2.0), released around 1999. The DOS version of Ghost on compatible hardware configurations works much faster than most of the *nix based image and backup tools. (Ghost 12.0) The ghost software for enterprise, including Ghost 12.0 and Deployment Solution 6.9, was released in 7 March 2016. Latest grub4dos downloads Note that 0.4.5c is an old stable release with no new features and some bugs (a=alpha, b=beta, c=release). I strongly recommend 0.4.6a (latest version may be buggy - use my recommended version).
A true clone is only available with Ghost 2003 so if you read all that thread I think it will explain the difference with a 'clone' and a 'copy'. What you can't do is run a clone onto an external drive but what you can do is copy a image of your computer onto the external drive. I am not into 'Raid' so I can't comment on that aspect but you should create a SRD ( Symantec Recovery Disk) that can include all the necessary drivers for your system. Acrobat x pro keygen. I run a multi boot machine and use Ghost 12 to backup, create a recovery point or image onto external drives and I have to say that Ghost 12 is very good at and I wouldn't be without it to be honest. Using Ghost 12 when backing up a multi boot (in my case 4 O/Ss ) by highlighting all 4 drives Ghost 12 will copy and recover with 'One Touch' Deric Edit, sorry about the font size I hit the wrong button.
Like I said in the previous post I am a Ghost 12 user and you will have gathered that I don't do cloning drives, having said that I would think that you could use the 'Copy Drive' function to to copy a drive (Clone has now been dropped) see pic. Normally what most of us do is to install the O/S on the bootable drive, usually C:and install Ghost and 'Copy My Computer' only onto an external drive, these backups are called restore points or images and you will be able to recover your computer with the backup that you created. If you are not too sure of the correct steps to take get back to us and we will set out what you need to do to ensure a safely backed up computer. Trust me Ghost 12 is very good and once you practice creating restore points or backups you will see how reliable Ghost is. I have just had a very bad experience with Ghost 12. Total crash of Vista and 12 did not recover my disk copy-image-clone (the names keep changing!). Don't remember what version of Ghost and Windows that worked perfectly for me in the past, but this time it has been a disaster.
I'm spending HOURS having to rebuild my system with all apps, etc, etc, etc that it takes to have a working environment. Can someone please give me some guidance, pointers and references so that I either don't try this again, or can learn to use the tool correctly. I have the 'disk copy' on both an internal disk 1 and on an external USB drive. Neither were recognized when I tried to recover. Got error msg and told to chkdsk, which did not run completely, then eventually did. Saw that earlier versions of 12 were flawed, and have now updated to the latest.
Will this latest version really work? What are the limitations? Can I 'image' my system on a partition of Disk 0 to another partition, and then recover the entire system when needed? I use Ghost 12 on a regular basis to re image as and when necessary and I can safely say I haven't had any problems at all and as a matter of fact it will also run on Win 7. To use Ghost 12 properly you need to create a recovery point preferably on an external drive for obvious reasons, but you can also create a recovery point on an internal drive. In your case once you have loaded Vista and a few necessary apps create your first recovery point by doing the following:- 1) Install Ghost 12 on the drive with the O/S installed, or on the last drive inline on a multi boot machine. 2) On the main UI (Home) select 'Run or Manage Backups' 3) Select 'Define New' 4) Select 'Backup My Computer', don't include 'Files and folders' 5) After clicking Next Highlight the drive or drives you want to backup 6) Work through the settings and select run now.
