I have two partitions which I dual boot from, XP home and Vista 64, I also own Norton Ghost 9 which is XP only, however if I run it from within XP would it be able to make a disk image of my Vista setup that I could boot from upon restore?
 
You could use a ghost 9 boot disk and create a disk image that way, then it'll work with any OS.


I think you can only restore/browse an image from the boot disk. It shouldn't have a problem creating the image from within XP, I'm just wondering if it will be usable when re-applied really.
 
You can definately create and restore an image from the boot disk, as I've done it many a time.

And done this way, yes it would work.

I don't trust running Ghost from within Windows itself, plus I don't like to install it.
