Background: I have been brought in to help an organization try to recover a
server that died. Server is now back up and online. The system had two
partitions, a C: Drive and D: Drive. When the server was up and running an
admin would do image backups to a Linux box. These images are in
<filename>.iso. One is for the C: and the other is for D:.

Issue: When trying to install the C: drive ISO back to the C: Drive on the
server it is not completing... getting to about 99% and then it stalls. They
have been using G4L (Ghost for Linux) to create these ISO images. When it is
'burning' the ISO image file to the C: Drive I notice that G4L shows the
following:

*<filename>.iso [FAT]*
**
Does the [FAT] mean that it is writting the data back to that partion in the
older FAT-12/16 format? If so, that would explain why we can't boot that
from that drive.

Have tried using MagicISO and Virtual Clone Drive to mount the ISO image.
But when I try to do that, I keep getting an error that the ISO image is
corrupt.

Would like to do the following; Run G4L and write the ISO to the D: Drive, I
have C: drive up and running in Windows 2003 Server, and then use some
utility to look at that data on that partition. Need to know if there is a
utility that would allow me to 'look' at that drive if it is in a different
format.

Ideas?
