If the recovery disk is an ISO image file, mount the ISO with a virtual drive program and then copy the files from the ISO image to the flash drive. 4 Test the finished Norton Ghost bootable USB flash drive. Restart the computer and enter the BIOS boot options menu. Select your USB flash drive from the list and hit enter.

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops Hi folks- I'm working on a laptop backup / disaster recovery scheme here. How can I get the bootable Ghost 9 recovery environment onto a USB memory key, making it bootable? My laptop (IBM T42P) can boot from USB. Ghost 9.01 newbie here. My prior experience is all with Drive Image ending with DI 2002. I would burn images to CD including bootable DOS with the DI2002 executables, so that each image disk was a self- contained recovery system (no other master recovery disk needed), or more recently, I put the DI2002 on a DOS-bootable USB key. Boot the USB key and BAM!

I'm ready to recover from CD/DVD with the image. I wasn't able to use DI2002 successfully to image my new laptop direct to DVD (assorted weird problems) so I bought our corporate standard Ghost. The main drawback I can see is that restoring the system drive requires booting the specific CD with recovery console on it. I don't want to have to carry it around, and there are problems when my recovery image media needs the same drive as the recovery console CD. Since Ghost 9 recovery environment is built on NT, I can't just run executables from DOS. I need to get the whole recovery environment onto the USB key. Any thoughts?

IMHO, recent versions of Ghost and DriveImage are heading in the wrong direction.

If you were happy with the DI2002 method, you probably should have switched to BootItNG instead of Ghost. IME, BootItNG is more stable anyway, and the method of creating bootable CD/DVD would probably look familiar to you from your experience with DI2002. I'm not sure if it can directly create bootable USB key (yet), but if not, tech support is very responsive and just might add it if you ask.

(And they don't charge you for upgrades.). I recently bought an ASUS Eee PC 1000H. Lacking an optical drive I wanted to be able to boot my Norton Ghost 9.0 recovery environment from a USB stick.

I assume the recent flood of these ultra mobile PC's will cause a renewed interest in this topic. Here are the steps to make a bootable Ghost 9.0 Recovery USB stick or SD card (works just as well with the builtin SD card reader of the ASUS 1000H): Format the stick using the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool (Google will easily locate this free utility for you). No need to use the 'Create a DOS startup disk' functionality in this case, the partition on the memory stick will be marked active for boot anyway. Copy the folder I386 from the Ghost 9.0 Disk onto the memory stick and rename it to minint Copy the file minint NTDETECT.COM to the root folder of the memory stick Copy the file minint SETUPLDR.BIN to the root folder and rename it to NTLDR (without an extension) If necessary install required Windows 2000 drivers. I copied the two files from the Eee support DVD, found in Drivers LAN Atheros Win2k into the memory stick folders minint INF and minint SYSTEM32 DRIVERS and Ghost activates the builtin LAN adapter of the 1000H. Boot from the USB stick. As a side note, except for the formatting part, the same procedure can be used to boot Ghost9 from an external harddrive containing an NTFS partition.

That allowed me to put the Ghost9 restore environment together with the actual backup itself onto a single 2.5' drive in a USB enclosure. Now that is what I call a portable backup solution! In contrast to memory sticks, the normal Windows Local storage disk management console (under Administrative Tools) allows to mark partitions on external harddisks as active. So no need for the HP format utility in this case. Hi JanniCash, I used your instruction to make my Ghost 9 to boot up on a flash drive. I can't get it to work. I must not be doing something correctly.

Do you format the flash drive with fat, fat32, or ntfs? In your instructions you state.'

I would like to get this working as you did, can you help me with some additional instructions? JanniCash said: I recently bought an ASUS Eee PC 1000H.

I did a memory stick exactly like this description and when I try to boot from the USB thumb drive i get an error message that says 'there is no operating system on this pen drive.' I have redone this many different ways with the same result. I can do a startup routine and the PC starts, but my result of your article did not work.

My drive is a Kingston 500 MB. Any other thoughts would be VERY welcomed! Thanks, Don Borden ddborden@windstream.net. JanniCash said: I recently bought an ASUS Eee PC 1000H.

I have a laptop that does not have a cd-rom or floppy drive. It is able to boot from USB though.

I have a disk image (ghost) of the disk that I need to restore back onto the laptop. I can't find a way to actually run the Ghost utility from a USB key though. I believe the ghost.exe should run from within DOS just fine but I can't seem to create a bootable USB key with DOS on it that allows me to run an EXE. Edit: I managed to find a Ghost utility that I could load from a bootable USB drive. Unfortunately, when I plug in my NTFS external drive (USB), it is not detected.

You can use Hirens Boot CD. Newer versions have a free alternative to Norton Ghost, older versions have the real Norton Ghost (though it is shareware). On their site how to make the 'boot cd' a bootable usb stick. Very simple, only takes a few clicks with the right software (all explained in the link). Update: Newer versions of Hirens Boot CD contain, which has many disk management tools, including, a free alternative to Ghost.

All in all I think Parted Magic is the best disk management utility I have ever used. Clonezilla doesn't have a polished GUI like Ghost (maybe it will someday?), but it still gets the job done.
