Ghost 2003 with a Laptop

External Since: Jan 25, 2004 Posts: 17

Hi, i have Ghost 2003 which i like alot. Ive used it to back up my
home tower computer and it works great with my WD ext USB2.0 HD. I
recently bought a Toshiba laptop and there is no floppy drive on it.
How do i go making a bootable cd of ghost that will load my usb 2.0
driver that would be comparable to the floppy that ghost makes so i
can restore my laptop using my ext hd in case of a failure?

The simplest approach is to make a backup on the
tower PC to CD. That CD will be bootable on the laptop.

Obviously you just boot it on the laptop, dont restore the
image file thats on the CD, just restore from the usb drive.
