The screen below shows how Norton Ghost will prompt you for span set
disk one and for subsequent volumes.
How to load from a spanned image
When loading a disk or partition from an image file, the process is the
same as loading from an unspanned image file. The loading procedure is
the reverse of the saving procedure. You are prompted to provide details
of each portion of the spanned image, as shown in the screen below.
Do one of the following:
Caution: You need to know where you saved your segments of the span.
You must also know each filename and path for each span segment.
When the disk image load is complete, reboot the target machine.
Image files and tape drives
Norton Ghost's support of SCSI tape drives allows storage of a single image
file onto a tape. When written onto the tape, there is no associated file
system used and this means that you are unable to access the tape from a
drive letter as if it were another storage drive. SCSI tapes only support
standard image files.
Select OK to continue on the same form of media. For example, if
you originally spanned onto a JAZ drive and wish to restore a 3.0
GB drive from just JAZ disks, replace the disk and press Enter to
continue from JAZ disks.
If you wish to restore from different forms of media, selecting
FileName gives you the option to restore from a different location.
