How to use Symantec Ghost:
How does Symantec Ghost restore the recovery system?
1. After starting Symantec Ghost, the "About Ghost" information is displayed, click "OK"
2. Click "Local"-"Partition"-"From Image" (ie: local-partition-from image file)
3. In the pop-up interface, click the inverted triangle button, and then select the D drive from the drop-down list (here, we take the D drive as an example. In actual operation, you need to select the disk partition where the backup file is stored. 1.1 represents the first disk and the first partition. , 1.2 represents the first disk and the second partition, and so on). The two yellow icon buttons behind the small black triangle button are "Up" and "New Folder" (the same below)
4. Click the *.gho file in "a certain folder" (for example, the backup file is stored in "a certain folder"), or use the cursor keys to select it and then click the "Open" button. If there are multiple image files, please check the generation date of the file. Usually the last one is better.
5. A new window pops up, showing some information about the image file. Click the "OK" button to continue. "Cancel" means abort or cancel.
6. Select the hard drive to be restored. One hard disk will be "OK" directly. Friends with multiple hard disks must choose the right disk (the hard disk to start the system is No. 1, and the CD boot depends on the master-slave relationship)
7. Select the partition to be restored. Usually the system partition is District 1 (i.e. C drive)
8. A dialog box will pop up, asking us whether to confirm overwriting the recovered partition data. If you find that there is an error in any of the above steps, you can click "No" to cancel, then try again, and select "Yes" to confirm that it is correct. "No" is selected by default. If you press the Enter key directly during keyboard operation, you will immediately return to the initial interface of Ghost. Use the left and right arrow keys to switch the selected item (white text)
9. Wait for the blue progress bar to reach 100% (the mouse pointer is hidden during this process, and the length of time is determined by factors such as machine configuration and data size, generally ranging from 2 to 20 minutes). The six dynamic values in the blue area in the middle of the figure below are from top to bottom: completion progress percentage, speed MB/minute, amount of copied data, amount of remaining data, elapsed time, and remaining time.
10. A successful completion dialog box will pop up. Click anything and the system will be restored as before. Click "Reset Computer" to restart the computer, click "Continue" (meaning: continue) to return to the initial interface of Ghost
Symantec Ghost FAQ:
1. How to use Symantec Ghost backup?
1) Restart the DOS system, go to the backup disk (enter the command "E:" and hit Enter), enter the backup directory (enter the command "CD GHOST" and hit Enter), run the GHOST program (enter the command "GHOST" and hit Enter) ) to start the GHOST program, press OK and press Enter to enter the screen below, press the cursor keys, and select the "Local (local) → Partition (partition) → To Image (generate image file)" item in sequence.
2) The screen will display the hard disk selection screen. Select the hard disk "1" where the partition is located. If you only have one hard disk, you can directly press the Enter key.
3) Select the partition where you want to create the image file. Here, use the up and down keys to select partition "1" (i.e. partition C), then press the Tab key to switch to the "OK" button, and then press Enter.
4) Select the location where the image file is saved. At this time, press the "Shift+Tab" keys to switch back to the drop-down menu for selecting partitions, and press the up and down keys to select the partition.
5) At this time, Symantec Ghost will ask you whether you need to compress the image file. You can only use the left and right keys to select it. "No" means no compression, and "Past" means compression at a small ratio but the backup work will be performed faster. "High" uses a higher compression ratio but the backup speed is relatively slow. Generally, "High" is selected.
6) After the preparation work is completed, you will be asked whether to proceed. Select "yes" and press Enter to create an image file for you. It usually takes 10 minutes to complete. When the progress bar reaches 100%, it means that the backup is completed. .
7) At this point we have made a backup of the C drive. When the system fails to solve the problem, we can easily restore the system.
