C is NTFS, looking for a way to copy the whole disk - China DOS Union Forum

Newbie here, not familiar with the place. I posted in another section just now, and nobody replied for a long time. Maybe I posted in the wrong section, so please ask the moderator to delete it

There are many machines. I want to use Ghost's DisktoDisk to complete system duplication. After setting up one machine, that machine has a floppy drive and CD-ROM drive, while the other machines do not. All the machines are identical.
Now C,D,F are all NTFS, E is FAT, XP is installed on C. I want to boot an OS from the FAT partition and use Ghost to do a full-disk copy. Can this be done?

Because when XP is not on C, after installing the restore card it gives the error that HAL.dll cannot be found. I tried modifying boot.ini, but it was ineffective, so maybe XP can only be on C.

Can this be done with a virtual drive?

My suggestion for your problem is that you can use full-disk cloning, and then import the source disk onto the target. That way all the computer's settings will be the same. From your description of the problem, I think you must be using office computers at your workplace, right~

Yes, that's exactly what I mean
