ok, i know someone posted the command to do this couple of months ago and i even bookmarked the page but i can't seem to find it anymore and i've tried searching.

so can someone tell me how set the size of the image files that ghost spans?

say i would like to back up my hdd image onto cdr and i would need image files of 650mb, how do i set that in ghost?

thanx! :D

At prompt:
ghost.exe -split=640
I leave some extra room, that way you have plenty of room for making cd bootable and adding the ghost.exe.

Do you mean a bootable ghost restore disk? If so, I would think that any bootable disk that allows you t access the ghost program in dos would work.
