Making a self-booting multi-CD restore disk w/ HDD image... Ghost doesn't, so what program does this?

I know Compaq's QuickRestore uses PowerQuest software, but it uses an image from the second partition of the drive and the restore CD has an image of the second partition only (it fit's on 1 CD). I have seen HP restore CDs on 2 discs, but I never saw what software they use. Basically, I'm looking for software to image an almost full 60GB drive & many smaller drives onto multiple CDs, that will self-boot & allow a complete restoration. Doesn't this kinda "make your own restore CD" software exist? All the ones I find require their software to restore it's images instead of making them self-booting. 🙁
To relate this to hardware, is PowerQuest's Drive image Pro the only one that can burn images directly to CD while imaging the drive? Can any software image a secondary drive while Windows is booted?
 
Um, ghost does exactly what your asking....can burn direct to cd from dos, can span discs, and can make bootable cds (you provide your desired bootdisk for it - eg one of the ghost bootdisks itself - and it uses it).....i suggest you read the documentation more thouroughly. On the issue of doing multiple drives at once, im not sure, but it would be simple enough to make a set of cds for each drive in turn.
