Ghost and the hidden partitions
It is really strange that DELL has chosen this way as a restore method.
In case a disaster recovery, do I need to restore every partition on the hard disk? or just C: is enough? I can backup the two hidden partitions by Ghost (ver 9.0, running under windows), The problem is, even I have created the images for the hidden partitions, when it is to recover in dos mode, where the images should be restored to? Can I still see those partitions?
Probably I should just give up the "shipped" condition, then, I can get ride of the hidden partitions.
By the way, does anybody know how to create a bootalbe DVD from Ghost 9, with the images on? I donot have a floppy drive.

I have 4 partitions as below on my HDD
1) (Primary) Un-Mounted: DellUtility (Probably FAT) (around 50MB)
2) (Primary) C: C_Drive (NTFS) (Remaining space on the drive)
3) (Primary) Windows NTFS Partition (D: Backup) (Around 20GB)
4) (Primary) CP/M Partition or something (Probably FAT) (Ghost displays it as Un-Mounted) (6-7 GB)
I want to install Linux and not sure which parttitions I must ghost and which to delete so as to free up atleast one "Primary" partition to add linux to.
I have PartitionMagic to tweak the same.
Any advise as to which one I could Ghost and then delete?
