- whatsnew.gho - Notes on new features of version Ghost 2.03
- ----------------------------------------------------------
- 1) Supports FAT32 and FAT16
- 2) Supports compression of image files
- 3) New batch switch -Z to compress an image file
- 4) Ghost now works with "System Commander"
-
- Version 2.03
-
- Fixed bug where Ghost was aborting when loading from a compressed
- image file an OS/2 FAT16 partition - Ghost was not handling the
- extended attributes file (EA DATA. SF)
-
- Version 2.04
-
- Fixed bug where Ghost was prompting to compress an image file,
- even when run in batch mode.
-
- Version 2.05 (Thu 16-Jan-97)
-
- Fixed bug in which when Ghost was loading from a disk image file,
- it occasionally reported that the disk image file was corrupt, when
- it was not corrupt.
-
- Version 2.06 (Mon 20-Jan-97)
-
- Added special logic so that Ghost can copy Compaq diagnostic partitions
- (Note: Image files need to be recreated)
-
- Fixed bug in that NT 4.0 was not booting after a Ghost transfer
-
- Version 2.07 (Wed 22-Jan-97)
-
- Fixed another bug in that under certain conditions NT 4.0 would not
- boot after a Ghost transfer. Message was:
- "BOOT: Couldn't find NTLDR, Please insert another disk"
-
- Version 2.08 (Mon 3-Feb-97)
-
- Correct OS/2 boot manager bug in that sometimes OS/2 failed to boot
- after cloning.
-
- Allow Ghost option of continuing even if source disk contains bad blocks.
- The switch -FRO tells Ghost to continue anyway, otherwise it will prompt
- user.
-
- Add support for FAT16 partitions which are LBA mapped (type 'E').
- Add support for extended partitions which are LBA mapped (type 'F')
-
- Added switch (-FDC) so that Ghost only checks for a dongle if switch is
- set. This is because the dongle check routine was interfering with the
- LPT1 port and upsetting computers using Zircom adapters.
-
- Version 2.09 (Thu 6-Feb-97)
-
- Corrected problem in that Ghost was Aborting with error 19090 when
- trying to dump or clone some FAT32 systems.
-
- Version 2.10 (Fri 10-Feb-97)
-
- **** Important: ANY FAT32 SYSTEMS GENERATED BY GHOST 2.09 SHOULD BE **** *
- **** RE-DONE. WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LAPSE in QUALITY CONTROL ***
-
- Corrected a file-corruption bug for FAT32 systems which was introduced in
- version 2.09. FAT tables were not allocated enough room, consequently as the
- amount of data in the FAT32 partitions grew the partition became corrupt.
-
- Version 2.11 (Mon 17-Feb-97)
-
- Display/Security features added for new suppliers
-
- Version 2.12 (Tue 18-Feb-97)
