Multi Bootdisk Creator
- A diskette for installing windows and running Ghost backup.
Compiled: 18.10.2001 (Version 2.0, danish help added)
This installation creates a shortcut on your desktop called \"Create Multi Bootdisk\". After installation insert a diskette in drive A, all data on the diskette will be erased.
The bootdisk has a menu that looks like this:
1. Install Windows 98 or Windows 98 SE (CD-Rom)
2. Install Windows 98 or Windows 98 SE (harddisk folder win98)
3. Install Windows Millenium (CD-Rom)
4. Install Windows Millenium (harddisk folder WIN9X)
5. Install Windows 2000 (CD-Rom)
6. Install Windows 2000 (harddisk folder W2K)
7. Ghost Restore from CD-Rom (GHOST folder with ghost.exe and gr.bat)
8. Ghost Backup Prepare (harddisk folder GHOST)
9. DOS-mode with CD-Rom drivers
The default choice is always Ghost Backup from harddisk. If you want another choice you must use curser keys within 20 seconds, otherwise ghost backup/restore will be prepared (choice 6).
Extra features on the disk are installation of Windows 98 / Me or 2000 from harddisk. That requires that you have copied install files to harddisk like this:
Example with disk drive D or partition D:
Windows 98 : d:\\win98\\
Windows Me : d:\\win9x\\
Windows 2000 : d:\\w2k\\i386\\
For installing Windows Me/2000 from CD-Rom should give no problems.
The main use of this diskette is finding your ghost folder with ghost.exe so you can either make a new backup, or restore latest backup to drive C. The folder \"GHOST\" must have ghost.exe inside, which is the backup program itself.
That program is not free and can be bought from
www.ghost.com or
www.symantec.com. After you have installed the whole ghost package just copy ghost.exe to your own \"GHOST\" folder on drive D or some other partition, and then you may uninstall the ghost package, since its only ghost.exe + this bootdisk that you need.
First time this disk starts in ghost-mode, it will copy the needed batchfiles GR.BAT and GB.BAT to your GHOST folder on the harddisk.
\"GB filename\" makes a new backup
\"GR filename\" restores a backup to drive c
