I have inherited a mess of at our IT office. The previous guy used GhostCast Server to deploy Ghost images to multiple PCs at once, but I can't get it to work (using 3Com PXE to serve as the host for the PXE boot).
So, I was thinking it would be easier if I booted the client PC using a Ghost boot disk, ran Ghost on the client & connected to the GhostCast server get the image. But, I'm having a hard time finding out how to create a bootable Ghost CD or USB drive. Most of the info i found online refers to using 'Ghost Boot Creator' which is not installed on our Ghost server. I don't have the original media for Ghost so, I'm at a loss.
I could just create a DOS or WinPE boot disk & add the files, but which version of DOS or WinPE should I use for that? where can I get the Lenovo NIC drivers (lenovo thinkcentre m81, m82 and m800 desktops and Lenovo t420s, t430s, t440s laptops)?
Does anyone have an ISO for a bootable Ghost disk or know where I can get one? I have Ghost v. 11.0.0.1502 on our GhostCast Server.
Any advice would be appreciated. I recently purchased Symantec solution suite 2.5 that includes Ghost version 11.5. I used the ghost utility to create a bootable usb flash drive with cd/dvd rom support in order to create an image from a partition on a Dell Precision M2400 with TS-U633 Sata DVDRW drive. The usb flash boots to the ghost.exe but the cd/dvd drive is not shown as a source to create the image file. I have added the proper drivers from dell and modified the config.sys and autoexec.bat files. Nothing has worked. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
