I've used ghost on win2k servers before and everything copies over fine. Today I cloned a NT4 server SP4, boot drive, and it didn't keep the drive letter assignments. The system drives were originally setup as C: hdd,
D: cdrom, and F: second partition. Both partitions were ntfs. After the ghost, the order was C: hdd, D: second part., and E: cdrom. This was easy enough to correct, but it caught me off guard. The old drive was 4.3 gig, the new 9.1 gig.

Has anyone else seen this happen, and what would the cause be?

I've seen this before a long time ago. It's been a long time since I ghosted an NT4 machine. However I've only seen this when moving the ghost image from one machine to another (identical hardware of course).
