Fav software and method to ghost computers?
Need to ghost 200 computers from win98 to win2000. would you use symantec ghost or another program. which one is easier/cheaper.
would you use a laptop and crossover ethernet or would you put the image on CDRs and ghost from the media. thanks.

Given your options I'd go for CD-r's
That way you can do it with more people (if they are available), but at least you can do multiple machines at once. Doesn't Windows 2000 have a "remote install" or "unattended install" option?

I would use Ghost Corp. and use multicasting and you can do them all at once if you want.... send them all the same image at once..... I love it... Its the only way I would do it if i was dumping the same image to them all....................................

I normally go with Ghost and a CD-R in a laptop. Configuring Ghost to work with a network card can be easy if it's a standard chipset, but laptops aren't normally in that class.

I use Ghost but I hear that BootIT-NG is an excellent product (http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/).

Does anybody know where I'd start the troubleshooting process for this? Why the slow transfer rate? The network is all connected with a D-Link 714p+ router/switch. I'm getting the image off a mapped network drive running on Win XP Pro. Thanks for any help guys! |
