DRIVEGHOST
New Product from Nick Copland
For too many years CMD drive users
have been without a complete disk
imaging solution. Sure, backup tools
exist - but lets face it, how many 3.5
inch disks do you need to back up a 16
MB partition? And how many partitions
do you have? And how often do you
actually get around to doing it?
OVERVIEW
DRIVEGHOST is a tool for "imaging"
or "ghosting" the contents and
structure of CMD drives. Drive
ghosting is far more than a backup -
it is a complete track and sector
accurate method of copying data and
ensuring that systems, not just files,
can be restored at a later date.
Programs, databases, GEOS -- anything
and everything is captured!
DRIVEGHOST images the contents and
structure of your CMD HD, FD or
RAMLINK to special files on a PC
configured to run 64HDD. These image
files can be kept on this PC or burned
to CDROM for a more permanent backup.
DRIVEGHOST offers the flexibility
of a complete backup/restore, user
selected partitions, or the ability to
import individual partitions to new
drives or locations. It even lets you
import D64 files downloaded from the
internet or from archives onto you CMD
drive.
