dermot,

I haven't made the image yet. I can use either Ghost 2002 Personal Edition 
(i.e. ghostpe.exe) or Ghost 2003 (ghost.exe). i.e. neither is the 
Enterprise Edition.

Not sure I have not used either of these just a corp edition

>2} if you spanned the 3 CD's then no problem

I was planning to span them. Though I haven't spanned before. If I do span them can I ignore the cautions in the rest of your message? i.e I just want to put the whole thing on the 1 partition.

Yes ignore my warning then. IF your version of ghost cannot span then you could use my warning method <BG>

  I've replaced images of Windows stuff before so I have a fair idea of 
what I'm doing.

By the way, will the floppy made on the original Linux be able to direct 
things to boot the later one i.e. boot from a different hard drive?

I doubt that it would work BUT  I am not that good at the linux bits yet so you need to ask that as a specific question to this list

Thanks for the prompt response,

You are welcome Dermot
