Do not add files to the root folder of a Ghost boot-partition image that contains
PC DOS. A computer that is cloned from this image does not start.
Warning:
If you use Ghost Explorer to add files to an image file, there may be some
performance degradation when you restore the file using GhostCasting. Ghost
Explorer calculates whether compilation is recommended. If it is, you can compile
the file to improve performance.
See
“Compiling an image file”
on page 48.
Listing the contents of an image file
You can create a text file that contains a list of the directories and their details
(and, optionally, files) that are in the current image file. You can store this file
with the image file to keep an easily accessible list of the image file contents.
To list the contents of an image file
1
In Ghost Explorer, open the image file.
2
On the File menu, click List Contents.
3
Click one of the following:
List the directories only
Directories Only
List the directories and the files
Include Files
List directories, files, and file details
Include Details
4
Select a directory to which to save the text file.
5
Type a file name.
6
Click Save.
About image file spans
You can split an existing image file into smaller spans. This function is useful if,
for example, you need to split a file into two or more files that can then be saved
onto a CD/DVD drive that is unsupported by Symantec Ghost. After you split an
image file you must compile it.
See
“Spanned image files”
on page 36.

“Size-limited image files”
