Anybody Knows Norton Ghost?

[wildaces]

I created my hardrive image using Ghost and what I got is supposedly a boot disk image file called "***.gho".

This .gho file is stored in my second drive and I'm sure that I can use this to restore or even overwrite my main drive.

My question is, how do you make a bootable cd out of this image?

I used "ghost.exe -split=695 -autoname" to span the image without compression and it didn't work.I ended up with 800mb file size.
I could have compressed the image down to 500mb but I just wanted to try to see if it can actually split the image just in case I fill up my hardrive.
Ghost probably does not support spanning more than 640mb.

This is a dream come true

I deliberately srewed up my computer just to test.Reinstallation took less than 5 minutes and everything works like a charm.

I have two problems - a)Still not able to make bootable CD as explain in the tutorial and b)Can somebody please explain how to use lock settings in Ghost as I want to make image dependent on machines. Meaning no one can copy one image on to another computer.

Regards.
