Viewing image files and their properties
Using Ghost Explorer, you can do the following:
View image file contents and save a list of files within an image file.
Extract files or directories from an image file.
Add, move, copy, delete, and launch files from and within an image file.
Use drag-and-drop or cut-and-paste functionality to add files and directories
from Windows Explorer to the image file.
Set span sizes.
Add a description to an image file.
Compile an image file to improve restore performance.
Ghost Explorer supports the following partition types:
FAT12
FAT16
FAT32
NTFS
Linux Ext2/3
To open Ghost Explorer
On the Windows taskbar, click Start > All Programs > Symantec Ghost >
Ghost Explorer.
To access a list of file commands
Right-click a file or directory in Ghost Explorer to access a list of file
commands.
You can view the contents of an image file, including details of the partitions,
directories, and files. You can also view the image file properties.
If the image file contains NTFS partitions that are stored on a CD you might receive
frequent prompts to swap CDs when you try to view the image file. To avoid this
problem, copy the spans from the CD onto a hard disk and then view the image
file on the hard disk.
