bootable CD for Ghost

I don't have a floppy in my machine anymore and I'd like to make a bootable CD to use with Norton Ghost for my backups. I can't seem to find any information on the possiblity. I'm using ver. 7

thanks

Make a Ghost floppy and use Nero's floppy emulation to make a CD bootable.

Note: you won't be able to use the mouse since the DOS driver needs to write to the bootdisk for some reason.
 
In that case, do what the Windows 98 boot disk does:
First it creates a RAM DRIVE, next it copies all sorts of files to that RAM drive.

If you grab the RAM DRIVE file from a Win98 Boot Disk, install the info into the config.sys file of a Ghost Boot Floppy, change the Ghost Boot Floppy to copy the mouse driver stuff to the RAM DRIVE and then load the mouse drivers, that may eliminate the lack of mouse problem.

I have tested absolutely none of this, so YMMV. 😀
 
PrincessGuard, thanks worked well.

The Diggler, thanks for the imput, it's not a big deal in Ghost tab, tab + shift and the arrow keys work fine.
