kRUSty Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Hello.We are using WinPE 2005 and Ghost 8.0 for imaging.The functionality is as followed.1.Booting WinPE2.Starting factory + registering dll3.VBScripts will started to gathering information4.after that diskpart destroys the existing partition5.diskpart create a new primary partition6.Format partition with ntfs7.Ghost will started to copy image to created partition8.Writing sysprep-informationThis works fine, but on some computers after ghost image is beeing restored, no access to data on partition is given. It looks like before step 7. If i´ve created an directory, for example, this directory existing after ghost also.Just if I boot the computer, the data on the partition become visible and then I can write on it. But why only on some computers this accures?It looks like the mapping table of the partition will not written or refreshed. Can I do it manual?Thanks for help in advancekRUSty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mats Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Hi kRUStyI think you are doing some extra steps here.you shouldn't need to create the new partion or format it since this already is in the ghost image. Your way isn't bad in any way it's just that you can save time by skipping it.have you tried to run diskpart between steps 7 and 8 and assign a letter to the new partition?I wrote a system that does the same as yours but with pqideploy insted of ghost. thee i had to assign a letter to the newly imaged drive before i could access it again. This has worked on about 30000 installations so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kRUSty Posted August 25, 2005 Author Share Posted August 25, 2005 Hey, Mats.Yes, the letter will assigned after every installation with ghost. I´ve forgotten to write that.The thing, that makes me crazy is, that it works on many computers, but on this two not. I´ve tried on two equal computers (siemens) with 100% equal hardware (same model). On one of comuter it works on another not.GreetskRUSty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you use the Partition switches on the command line. Not Drive letter.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kRUSty Posted August 25, 2005 Author Share Posted August 25, 2005 Hey, Chris.Don´t know what you mean.I restore the partition with followed options:-clone,mode=prestore,src=Z:\E-Client\20008\images\G-Img.gho:1,dst=1:1 -fni -sure -quiet -auto -buffersize=32 -pwd="123" -fxand as destination I have to give a partition to ghost where the image should be created. So I have to create image before.???Greetings,kRUSty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mats Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 ah that could be it.Have you tried to clone the entire disk instead of a partition? You should clone the entire disk to get the bootsector and mbr correct.I Checked with my people and we got E620 working in our enviroment without problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kRUSty Posted August 26, 2005 Author Share Posted August 26, 2005 Hey, Mats.with which switch can I do that?The parameters of ghost is a product of programmer before me.Greetings,kRUSty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mats Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Hi KrustyI dont know with ghost since we use pqideploy instead but i think you must take a new ghost of your sorce machine and take the whole disk.I found this on the net on how to restore an entire diskghost.exe -clone,mode=load,src=Z:\E-Client\20008\images\G-Img.gho,dst=1 -sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kRUSty Posted September 1, 2005 Author Share Posted September 1, 2005 Hello.We´ve founded the reason.It was the Image. After creating a new image-file the access to harddisk was able.But we can not say what the failure exactly caused it.Thanks to all for help!Greetz.kRUSty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkreifus Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I realize this is an older thread....but does the order of the switches after ghost32.exe matter?This is my script::ghostECHO.ECHO.ECHO Please select Hard DriveEcho A)SATAEcho B)IDEECHO --=====--ECHO C)Go back to beginingchoice /c:ABC /N if errorlevel 3 GOTO menuif errorlevel 2 set ide =-auto -fxif errorlevel 1 set ide =-auto -fx -fninet use S: \\%server%\currentimage * /USER:%domain%\%username%ECHO.ECHO.ECHO You will now be imaging a computer. Any data on that computer will be destroyed. When you are ready,PAUSEghost32.exe -clone,mode=restore,src=S:\CSIimage.gho,dst=1 -sure -quiet %ide%GOTO exitShould the -fni be moved up?
