This should register the serial/license number to the executable then just copy both these files to a safe place and you can use them in whatever script or CD or whatever you create to restore an image. env files to a bootable floppy, boot the floppy, and at the DOS prompt type. Anyway, search your system for a file named 'ghost.env' or 'ghostpe.env' or whatever matches the 'ghost' executable name minus the extension name. Normally the ghost.env file is in the ghost program folder, but who knows, maybe it gets written somewhere else in the home version. env file and you can 'register' that to your executable so it won't ask for the license number whenever you run the program. When you enter a license number (in Ghost 7 EE, anyway), it generates the. We used to use Ghost all the time to do imaging (I work for a college) and I dunno if the 'home' version has the same options as the pro stuff, but you can take a look and see if you have a file named 'ghost.env' in the same folder your ghost.exe file is at. Ghostpe.exe -clone,mode=load,src=D: escue.gho,dst=1 I've looked into command line switches provided by symantec, but I can't find a solution to unattended restoring. I have the license number, but I don't know how to get it typed into the box automatically (no, mom can't be trusted to do it, she'll screw things up). It opens and sits there waiting for input. My problem is that what I've got so far works only up until the screen where I must enter the license number. I'm looking to write a bat file where she can just type 'help' from the C: prompt and ghost will just restore the clone completely unattended. I had made an image of the C: drive and parked it on the second physical drive D: but now I have to go over to her house to run the ghost program every time she screws things up. Well, soon enough as expected, she totally mucked things up. Recently, I got a new comp and gave my old one to my comp-illiterate mom so she could learn to surf and stuff.

I just never figured out a way around that. I had entered the registration number on install ages ago and made the bootable floppy but the program still requires I re-enter the license number every time I do a restore (the one on the splash screen). I'm using Norton Ghost 2002 ver 7 to clone and restore my hardrive.
