What is this "mark"? What is the effect of not allowing Ghost to mark the
drive? -What is the impact of allowing it to mark the drive.
Also (related) Norton LiveUpdate updated Ghost (in Systemworks 2003)
recently. Anyone know what the update changed? (could not find it explained
on Symanted site)
Thanks
I found out the hard way that when Norton Ghost "marks" the hard drive
it is actually modifying your master boot record. In my case it
created a primary boot partition for itself and also made it the
active boot partition. This screwed things up pretty bad and the only
way to get my system to boot again was to boot with a startup disk,
run fdisk, remove the ghost partition, and set my primary partition
back to active. I believe that I had problems with it because I'm
using SATA hard drives which ghost would need a driver for to access.
Nope. What you describe is Ghost trying to create its virtual partition.
Ghost also marks a drive by writing some stuff to sector 62, but this is
something different and has nothing to do with the virtual partition
thingie.
