Forces the disk to restore to a GPT disk.
-fgpt
Forces the FAT partition id. This switch changes the partition id to the recommended
partition id for the FAT partition within the destination image file or the destination
partition table. This switch only takes effect if the source is a disk or partition, not an image
file.
For example, if you are cloning a partition of type 0xA0 (some unknown partition id), and
Symantec Ghost sees it as a valid FATx (FAT12/FAT16/FAT32) partition, then the partition
id is changed from 0xA0 to FATx.
This was default Symantec Ghost behavior before Symantec Ghost 7.5. This switch allows
for backward compatibility.
-ffatid
Prefers the use of direct IDE access for IDE hard-disk operations.
-ffi
Prefers the use of direct ASPI/SCSI disk access for SCSI hard-disk operations.
-ffs
Prefers the use of Extended Interrupt 13h disk access for hard-disk operations.
-ffx
Shows the fingerprint details written on a hard disk created by Symantec Ghost. The
fingerprint details include the process used to create the disk or partition and the time,
date, and disk on which the operation was performed.
Reports the presence of a Ghost fingerprint with the following return code:
■
If any of the disks that Ghost can access have a fingerprint: 1
■
If none of the disks that Ghost can access have a fingerprint: 0
■
If the computer has no disk or none of the disks can be accessed: 2
-finger
Uses all available disk space when creating partitions. By default, Symantec Ghost often
leaves a small amount of free space at the end of the disk. Because partitions must be aligned
to cylinder boundaries, Symantec Ghost may leave up to 8 MB free even when -fis is specified.
-fis
Forces the disk to restore to a MBR-based disk.
-fmbr
Force mounting of volumes even if they have not been cleanly unmounted.
-fmount
Disables direct IDE access support for IDE hard-disk operations.
-fni
Disables direct ASPI/SCSI access support for SCSI hard-disk operations.
-fns
Disables extended INT13 support for hard-disk operations.
-fnx
