NORTON GHOST v14 0 SYSTEM RECOVERY DISK-DVTiSO
The importance of applications like Norton Ghost is usually determined when something breaks up – in this case, it would be your hard drive and all valuable files on it. Making backups of your data every once in a while should be pretty much standard and Norton Ghost is one of the application which will help you tremendously with it – and especially with restoring the computer to previous state.
Norton Ghost 14.0 protects PCs-including all applications, settings, folders, and files-with advanced backup and recovery. It provides powerful protection with new features such as offsite backups and Symantec ThreatCon integration, as well as enhanced performance, one-to-one remote management, LightsOut Restore capability, and more.
With Norton Ghost 14.0, you have a choice of backup types: full system (disk image) or specific files and folders. Backups include encryption and error checking to help keep your data safe, while compression, incremental backups, and automatic backup file management minimize storage space. Plus, you can now copy recovery points to a FTP site for easier offsite backup management. Norton Ghost 14.0 is ready whenever you need to recover, whether that involves restoring individual files or an entire system. The Software Recovery Disk allows you to start your computer, scan for viruses or hard disk errors, and start the recovery process even if your operating system won’t start.
Features:
* Full system backup (disk image)—Backs up everything on a hard drive or partition.
* File and folder backup—Backs up only the specific files and folders you choose rather than saving an entire drive.
* FTP backup—Copies recovery points to a FTP site for easier offsite backup management. NEW
* Offsite backup—backs up your files to NAS (Network-Attached Storage) devices. NEW
* Symantec ThreatCon integration— triggers incremental backups whenever ThreatCon reaches a specified threat level. Great for computers without virus protection. NEW
* Incremental and differential backup—Backs up only files that have changed.
* Google Desktop™ integration—Makes data recovery even faster with searchable backup indexes.
* LightsOut Restore—Restores your system with an on-disk software recovery environment—no bootable CD required.
* Remote management—Controls other Norton Ghost installations (12.0 or higher) on your local area network.
* Advanced compression and encryption—Minimizes storage space and helps keep sensitive documents safe.

After all their bloatware, this is something from symantec that is actually worth having.
hey dude…forget anything??
…like the rapid/UJ links??
JFC, what happened to Ghost!?!?
I still use Ghost 2003 under DOS and still try to find something that is at least as hardware-independent when doing offline-images…
Isn’t this unneccesary? The iso release of v14 allows you to make the boot disc.
Is there an application like this that can make the image from a partition to a dvd and create it bootable?
So when i need to restore all is needed is put the image in the drive and power on the computer?
Have they even fixed the problem regarding SATA Drives?
I remember last few versions had a problem where if you schedule a “ghosting” session to happen during next windows boot up, it will not work if you have a SATA HDD.
I remember breaking my MBR and stuff cuz of that stupid bug

dupe? Norton.Ghost.v14.0-EDGE
Even if it is a dupe, I can’t find Norton.Ghost.v14.0-EDGE anywhere. So I’d like to say thanks (BTW, if anyone does have a link for Norton.Ghost.v14.0-EDGE, please post it)
Finally, does this include the SP2 update released yesterday?

Sorry to say and don’t ban me from rlslog now… I actually paid for two licenses and just returned them both b/c some bad stuff on the vista desktop and xp laptop systems that Symantec support promised to solve about a month ago. I’m sure it can be done, it’s just that they don’t like to deal with customers. No point in paying then, it is after all an application you don’t want any problems with.

ghost 12 is still the best version, is faster than the earlier versions and doesnt have the problems of the later releases.

The v12 recovery cd would fail w/ 4 gigs of ram, v14 fixed that. -Anon, SATA working fine here, 4 drives in raid-0. No drivers required.
fyi- If you read the EULA upon booting to the recovery environment, it says something about granting Symantec permission to track websites you visit. In an attempt to identify malicious websites iirc.
Using acronis myself,but i will try this one out..

I stopped using Norton Ghost when version 12 took about 25 minutes from booting the CD to actually selecting the backup file to restore from.
And when you consider that I used to boot it from a floppy disc that would take about 2 minutes it’s not really what you’d call ‘progress’ is it.
I’ve used many of them but for home use Paragon Hard Disk Manager beats Norton & Acronis hands down..
Can one make new backup images or modifying partitions from the recovery disk?
rapid/UJ links?? who wants rapid/UJ links?? they are crap real crap
Thanks for this link ismanio. For everyones info the keygen has a trojan and doesn’t seem to work anyway. Not tried the .iso itself.

Service Pack 2 Available Guys?
Fixes heaps of the bugs in v14.
The reason why this takes 20 mins to load is that it has to load 100x more drivers than when Ghost was available via a floppy bootdisk.
Anyone recommend the best system for realtime imaging? i.e. total disaster recovery of boot volume (C:)?
Thanks!
Emma. (:
The following is a chat conversation I had with a technical support rep at Symantec (a very nice guy, who really helped me out) regarding information I required to create a ghost System Recovery Disk from the ISO file Symantec sent me when I purchased a downloadable version of Ghost 14.0. I found the documentation manual for Ghost to lack a lot of basic content. I had difficulty using Nero Burning ROM and wasted 3 CD’s before I gave up and contacted Symantec technical support.
It’s pretty easy making an SRD, backing up using Ghost and restoring, if only the manual could be written in more understandable way….
The following should help anyone understand the basics and allow them to use Symantec Ghost 14.0. The sad part of this is there are a lot of unanswered links on Google and Yahoo of other customers who purchased Ghost 14.0, experiencing the same problems. I am an IT Professional and I was struggling with this, imagine your average joe out there.
Hey Symantec, wake up, please write a more user friendly manual for Ghost that anyone can understand and stop letting your engineers write these manuals. Know why, they can’t write…..

Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 22:54:58 EST 2008)>There are two applications in the Ghost software. Ghost for doing a backup and full recovery or the other app to restore only files and folders
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 22:55:16 EST 2008)>I got it and it is not easy reading.
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 22:55:55 EST 2008)>I think Sysmantec should use more care when writing such a document that they are able to give it to a dumb blonde and have them understand it.
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 22:56:27 EST 2008)>Not comparing myself to that, but there is a lot of crap missing from that document unless you don’t have a life and have the time to go through it religiously
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 22:57:21 EST 2008)>There should be an easier manual. It’s not that difficult but I know working in the IT field that engineers are the poorest writers
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 22:58:08 EST 2008)>Am I correct that Ghost is basically two packages
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 19:58:24 EST 2008)>You can send your feedback to Symantec regarding the manual .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 22:58:38 EST 2008)>Could you do that for me please.
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 19:58:34 EST 2008)>It has two backup systems .
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 19:58:40 EST 2008)>One for a complete drive backup .
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 19:58:47 EST 2008)>And the other for selected files and folders backup .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 22:59:33 EST 2008)>You have recovery point browser being the second application
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:00:04 EST 2008)>recover point browser is for the selected files and folders?
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:00:13 EST 2008)>Recovery point browser is an option to browse a backup file and restore files from that backup .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:00:29 EST 2008)>ok
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:00:25 EST 2008)>It is not for selected files and folders.
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:00:42 EST 2008)>YOu can browse a complete drive backup and view the files are restore them .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:01:19 EST 2008)>so with that on SRD I can do restores to all my computers backups
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:01:31 EST 2008)>There is no need to make up more SRD’s
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:02:31 EST 2008)>If you do not see the USB drive in the Recovery Environment , you may need to create a Custom SRD using the Ghost program .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:03:19 EST 2008)>and does that SRD contain a catalog of the complete backup, maybe involving several CD burns
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:03:56 EST 2008)>SRD does not contain any catalog of backup .
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:04:17 EST 2008)>When you boot from the SRD, in the Recivery mode , it will ask you to select the correct backup file that you want to restore .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:04:34 EST 2008)>ok
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:04:45 EST 2008)>so if I can’t see the USB drive then what
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:05:18 EST 2008)>You need to create a Custom SRD from the Norton Ghost program .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:05:31 EST 2008)>ok and what does that entail
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:05:29 EST 2008)>In Ghost , there is an option to create a Custom Recovery Disc .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:05:42 EST 2008)>ok
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:06:19 EST 2008)>That will add the missing drivers and the files from the original Recovery CD to a temporary location , and then will ask you to insert a new blank CD , the program will write those files to the new CD .
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:06:28 EST 2008)>And that will be your Custom SRD .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:07:38 EST 2008)>what do I do with the custom SRD
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:08:29 EST 2008)>You will boot from the Custom SRD and perform the restore operation .
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:09:29 EST 2008)>Is there anything else that I can help you with?
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:09:40 EST 2008)>and if I dont see the usb drive what do I restore from
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:10:21 EST 2008)>With the Custom SRD , you will see the USB drive because it will contain the drivers .
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:10:36 EST 2008)>YOu may not see the USB drive with the original SRD .
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:12:40 EST 2008)>I see. Ok thats all. What you told me could be written into a very easy manual and save a lot of people the trouble of doing this very simple procedure. I see a lot of links on Google and Yahoo people p0osting for help and no answers back. I think that is very poor of Symantec to put people in that position. I’m and IT guy and do it for a living and I have to go to you for help. I’m no wizard on a computer but I still shouldn’t have to do that.
Mr. Tim Erskine(Sat Dec 6 23:13:16 EST 2008)>I am hoping you can forward my comments to someone with some authority within Symantec. Can you do that
Samujjwal(Sat Dec 6 20:13:54 EST 2008)>You can post your comment yourself . I will provide you a link .
