Hi One of the thing that I have noticed these days is that most of the new distributions use UUID (universally unique identifier)for identifying the disk partitions, this different for all the disks and partitions, so even if you have same machines/config the ghost image refuses to boot/load properly.
I think some distro provides a facility while installing the system itself is that to identify the disk parts by device and not by UUID. How do you know if you system is using UUID, just do a: cat /etc/fstab and if you see some string which is like this UUID=fab05680-eb08-4420-959a-ff915cdfcb44 /media/flash vfat defaults 0 0 HTH dexter _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
