Recover CD
In recent years, well-known computer manufacturers (such as IBM, Acer,
Compaq, etc.) bundle Recover CDs with their computers to reduce the
cost resulting from servicing, while at the same time increasing their market
competitiveness.
The following is a simple guide to how to create a recover CD:
1. For extremely easy creation of the recover floppy disk, use the copy
program for example Easy CD Creator (Note 2). First, create a
recover floppy disk containing:
Bootable files (Command.com and Io.sys and MSDOS.SYS)
Config.sys (Configuration setup file)
Autoexec.bat (Auto-execution batch file)
Mscdex.exe (CD-Rom execution file)
Ghost.exe (Ghost execution file)
Oakcdrom.sys (ATAPI CD-ROM compatible driver)
The content of Config.sys is:
DEVICE=Oakcdrom.sys /d:idecd001
The content of Autoexec.bat includes:
MSCDEX.EXE /D:IDECD001 /L:Z
Ghost.exe clone,mode=load,src=z:\original.gho,dst=1 -sure -rb
2. Write the backup image file (original.gho) of the entire hard disk or
partition into the recover CD. Use the Recover CD to boot up the
system and restore the backup files automatically.
For description of relevant parameters, refer to [Introducing Ghosts
Functions].
Note: For more details regarding the creation program and method for
creating the recover CD, please refer to the legal software and
relevant operation manual.
