The Source Drive dialog box displays the details of every disk Norton
Ghost can find on the local machine. On selection of the source
drive, the Source Partition dialog box displays.
3 Select the source partitions to be included in the destination image
file.
The Source Partition dialog box displays the details of all the
partitions on the selected source drive. Multiple partitions may be
selected. On selecting OK, the File Locator dialog box displays.
4 Select the image file. Do one of the following:
■
Type the path and filename for the disk image file.
■
Browse to locate the image file.
The image file may reside on a local drive (but not the one that is
being copied from). When using peer-to-peer connections, the image
file will be created on the slave machine. On pressing Enter, the
compress image question displays.
5 Select the compression type.
■
Select No for no compression (high speed).
■
Select Fast for low compression (medium speed).
■
Select High for high compression (slower speed).
Compression may affect the speed of operations. On selection of a
compression level, Norton Ghost estimates the amount of space
available for the destination image file. If there is insufficient space,
Norton Ghost prompts you to enable spanning of image files.
Note: If spanning is enabled, Norton Ghost prompts for the additional
disks and volumes. See “Image files and volume spanning” on page 40 for
more information.
