Ghost 8.0 operation skills from entry to the master

  
Windows's own instability, various hardware and software failures and some inexplicable problems, often make it necessary to reinstall the system, especially for our school room manager A catastrophic blow. In fact, we only need to use Ghost reasonably, it will make these troubles swept away. Here I will talk about some tips used by Ghost for your reference.

a, tips for getting started


1. Before cloning, collate the C drive


with the Norton 2002 Norton System Check checks for errors in the system before the clone and optimizes the partition or hard disk to be cloned to reduce the hassles of the cloning process and speed up the cloning. .

2 to an image file weight loss tips


(1) of the Windows98 Temp folder to delete all temporary files;

( 2) Move the two folders My Document and Temporary Internet Files to the remaining partitions;

(3) Delete those help files that are not useful, readme Files, screen saver files, background images, and various audio files;

(4) Try to install various application software on the remaining partitions;

(5) If it is cloned under DOS You can also use the DEL command under DOS to delete the Windows98 virtual memory file Win386.swp.

3. Tips


(1) backup before cloning to check the "Options /span /Create CRC32" option to detect errors in the cloning process.

(2) General Procedure The method is a backup hard disk partition: Select "Local /Partition /To Image" option from the main menu Ghost, open the hard disk to be backed up (if linked to more than hard) and zoning , then specify the name and path of the image file. After OK, the image file with the extension .gho will be generated.

(3) In selecting the compression ratio, it is recommended not to use "high", because it is very time-consuming, and the compression ratio has not improved significantly.

(4) after cloning is complete, use the "Local /Check /Image File" to check the integrity of the image file.

Management Skills


(1) 4. image file image file on the hard disk or partition to ensure correct and use a Disk Defragmenter program collated, and then Image file is saved;

(2) The image file is set to read-only, hidden, system properties, so that it can be accidentally deleted without being moved by the disk defragmenter (I found that if it is stored When the image file is sorted, it is often not possible to pass Ghost's 32-bit CRC detection, so we should prevent this image file from being moved by the disk defragmenter;

(3) If the conditions permit, it is best to image Copy the file to an external hard drive or burn it to a disc to damage the image.

5. Tips


restore the backup before (1) Be sure to restore the system some important things (such as favorites, all kinds of e-mail messages, etc.) to back up general methods of operation

(2) is to restore the backup: select "Local /partition /from Image" option from the Ghost's main menu, select an existing image file, and then specify the partition to overwrite, OK then , you can restore the backup file to the specified partition.

(3) pay attention to the use of Ghost Explorer software in conjunction with the system so that when a problem occurs, without having to restore the entire hard disk partition or simply a file folder or file problems will occur recovery can be.

(4) preferably with KV3000 (Kill, Norton) tool to backup partition table information to a floppy disk, which can be easily restored in the event of damage caused by viruses.



Second, the advanced operating techniques


1.Ghost common command parameters introduced


Since Ghost has more command parameters, we will only introduce a few commonly used parameters here.

(1)-RB: Ghost operation automatically restarts after exiting;

(2)-Zn: compressed image file, -Z or -Z1 is not compressed (fast); -Z2 For high compression (medium speed); -Z3 to -Z9 compression rate increases sequentially (speed decreases in turn);

(3)-FRO: Skip error (use this parameter to save the bad sectors in the hard disk Information)

(4)-CLONE: This is the core parameter for implementing Ghost unattended backup (recovery).

The usage syntax is: -CLONE, MODE=(operation), SRC=(source), DST=(destination), [SZE(size), SZE(size),...]

Description
:

1operation can be: copy: disk to disk; load: file to disk; dump: disk to file; pcopy: partition to partition; pload: file to partition; pdump: Partition to file.

②source desirable: drive letter, starting at 1; or file name (here need to write absolute path).

③destination desirable: drive letter, starting at 1; or file name (here need to write absolute path); @ CDx, recorders, x represents the drive letter burner, starting at 1.

(5)-PWD: Set the password. If you bring =***, it will be automatically input. If it is not, it will prompt for input during operation. The backup and recovery methods are the same;

(6)-F32: Convert the disk format from F16 to F32;

(7)-SURE: Answer “Yes” to all prompts or warnings that require confirmation (this parameter is recommended for advanced users);

(8)-IA: Forced copy (for partition operation), it is recommended to use this parameter when operating on C drive;

(9)-SPAN: Classification parameter, when there is insufficient storage space When prompted to copy another backup package to another partition. .

2 automatic system recovery disc production


(1) Start production Ghost image file, named: beifen.gho, saved to D: \\ Beifen in .

(2) Production Windows98 boot disk, delete a file this unnecessary, copy Ghost.exe onto the boot disk.

(3) written on the floppy autoexec.bat add the following:

Ghost -CLONE, MODE = load, SRC = X: \\ Benfen \\ beifen.gho: 1, DST = 1 –SURE –RB

(Note: X is the drive letter of the CD. Since there is a virtual disk after booting the computer with the boot disk, the drive letter will be extended one bit backward, so if your CD is displayed in the system For F, where X should be set to G, and so on)

(4) Burning a disc: I am using Easy CD Creator, after adding the data to be burned, choose to make a bootable The CD" software prompts to insert a bootable floppy disk, insert the newly created boot disk into the floppy drive, click "OK", the content on the floppy disk is added to the CD directory to be burned, and two special files are added: bootcat.bin And bootimg.bin. This will burn the disc.

After these steps, our "system automatic recovery disk" has been successfully produced. When restoring the system later, just set the boot order to "CD-ROM" in "CMOS" and put it in. We can make a system automatically recover the CD to automatically restore the system, enough cool!
