Hello all We have two very important workstations dedicated to tasks of development and investigation. At the moment we have installed a dual boot platform with CentOS 4.0 and Windows XP Proffessional SP2. In order to do backups of these machines we need to create an image with Norton Ghost 2003. We have worked with Ghost during several years with different platforms (Red Hat, White Box Linux, Windows) without problems but now we are facing problems with our CentOS. When the creation of the image reaches approximately 50% in BOTH machines the Norton Ghost aborts with an error. Using the "force cloning" option of Ghost we managed to complete the creation of the image, nevertheless when recovering it we got this error: GRUB GRUB (the machine never booted) Then we tried to boot CentOS from a floppy and linux rescue and it didn't work. Two days ago we made and we recovered images to those same discs with White Box and WinXP without problems. Given our experience with Norton Ghost, we considered seriously that the problem is CentOS. We did many tests to have arrived at this consideration. Here are the details: Two exactly equal machines (the same hardware and resources), except by the hard disk 1. PC DELL Hard disk: Maxtor 20GB RAM: 512 MB Processor: Pentium 3, 866 MHz 2. PC DELL Hard disk: Seagate 20GB RAM: 512 MB Processor: Pentium 3, 866 MHz The disk partitions are: /hda1 windows xp 10 GB /hda2 /boot 100 MB /hda3 / 8900 MB /hda4 swap 1 GB We would like to know if someone has had the same problem (making an image with Norton Ghost 2003 to a dual boot system using Windows and CentOS.) Any suggestions are VERY important for us. Thanks in advance. Regards, Juan P. Espino
