Hi Guyz....
I'm new here so please bear with me; I've just purchased Ezboot and the UltraISO.

I've read very carefully instructions on making a ghost restore disk.  Simply, I want to burn ghost and my ghost.gho file for unattended restoration of an OS Failure.

OK, so I've used the BOOTMEC.IMG file and modified the autoexec to read the folowing...

@echo off
PATH=a:\;a:\dos;x:\ghost
ghost.exe -clone,mode=load,src=X:\system.gho,dst=1:1 -fx -sure -rb

Everything boots fine, I select the option to fire my ghost.img but, I get the error File not found.

The system boots into A: with bootup dos file showing
My CD Drive has been assigned R, with the root showing as EZBOOT -> with files and a GHOST Directory.

How do I get the autoexec to Find the Ghost.exe? without resorting to cd R:EZBOOT ghost etc, because if the drive assignment is altered to say S, it again will not find the files.

Confused.... I'm sure there must be a comand that does not rely on specific drive letter assignment to find its file.

Cheers
Mik

You need MSCDEX.EXE-command on first line to assign a driveletter to your driver (CD/DVD-reader).

Autoexec should look like this:

MSCDEX.EXE  /D:tomato /L:X
PATH=a:\;a:\dos;x:\ghost
ghost.exe -clone,mode=load,src=X:\system.gho,dst=1:1 -fx -sure –rb

First line forces CD/DVD-reader to be assigned to driveletter X (as you can notice in Path “dos;x” and ghost-command “X:\system.gho”). Note: Original settings are R (if you like R so go ahead and change letter in “path” and in line for “ghost command”).
