Re: Ghost 10 and USB drives



Have you contacted Symantec regarding this isssue? I use Ghost2003 and I
have no problems seeing USB Drives.

I have created a restore point on a USB drive using Ghost 10. When I boot
from the Ghost CD, the USB drive is not available, so I cannot do a restore
(this was only a test, I don't need to restore currently).

How can I resolve the problem of not seeing my USB drive when booting from
the Ghost CD?
