Extracting a file or directory from an image file
You can extract a file or directory directly from an image file using Ghost Explorer.
This does not delete the original file, but copies it to a new location.
Note:
You can also use a drag-and-drop operation to move a file from Ghost
Explorer to Windows Explorer to extract it.
To extract a file or directory from an image file
1 In Ghost Explorer, open the image file.
2 Select the file or directory to be extracted.
3
On the File menu, click Extract.
4
In the Extract To dialog box, select the location to which you want to extract
the file or directory.
5 Click Extract to save the file or directory to the chosen location.
Modifying image files
Whether you can add, delete, or view an image file, or move files within an image
file, depends on the version of Symantec Ghost that was used to create the image
file. You can check the version of Symantec Ghost used to create your image file
in the image file properties. Ghost Explorer cannot open a file created with a
version of Symantec Ghost earlier than 3.0.
You can use Ghost Explorer to add files or directories from Windows Explorer to
any image file that was created in Symantec Ghost version 6.0 or later. You can
also delete files from any image file that was created in Symantec Ghost 5.1d or
later. If you add a file or directory to an image file the original span split is
preserved.
See “Viewing image files and their properties” on page 44.
Ghost Explorer supports Windows cut-and-paste operations within image files.
For example, you can copy, paste, move, delete, and add files to images. You can
also use a drag-and-drop operation to move files from Windows Explorer to Ghost
Explorer.
To avoid problems, you should avoid making the following types of changes to an
image file:
■
Ghost Explorer prevents you from adding files to the root folder of Linux
Ext2/3 partitions. If you add files, the new files are not visible when you restore
the image, and the e2fsck tool reports errors.
