I have a very annoying problem. I am trying to either clone or
image/restore a Windows 2000 NTFS partition (only 1 partition on the
drive) to a second drive currently running Win98 with 2 partitions.
The problem is that the second drive is hooked up via PC Card (Road
Warrior Bullet Drive) so whenever Ghost boots into its DOS mode, I
lose PC card support and therefore access to the second drive. If I
boot up using the Win98 drive, then I lose NTFS support so I can't
access the drive I want to image. Can someone give me a hint on how I
can go around this? Would imaging to CD be the solution? My USB CDRW
is a bit unreliable. Burned several coasters in a row last week, so I
am hesitant to use it, but I guess if I must, I must...thanks

If you install drivers for the target drive, you should at least be
able to image your source drive with Ghost. Depending on the nature
of the driver, you might or might not be able to clone (most likely
not).

Road Warrior Bullet drives use Shining PC cards. Drivers can be
downloaded from iGo's website.

Well, after trying various configurations and downloading drivers, I
ended up installing Ghost on another PC and made an image using
peer-to-peer TPC. I will attempt to restore the image on Monday.
