Clone switch usage

SRC defines the source for the operation selected by the clone mode option.

Source options for cloning

disk

drive number

Source disk drive number. Numbers start at 1. For example: 
SRC=1

A partition on a drive can also be specified. Numbers start at 
1. For example: 

SRC=1:2

file

filename

The source image file name. For example: 

SRC= g:\source.gho

A partition in an image file can also be specified. For 
example:

SRC=g:\source.gho:2

Files can also be read from a CD-ROM drive.

To specify a file located on a file system not recognized by 
DOS, such as, NTFS, use the same format as the disk switch, 
specifying both a disk and partition. For example:

src=1:2\image.gho

In this example, Image.gho resides on an NTFS file system on 
the second partition of the first disk.

tape

@MTx

The tape drive number. Numbers start at 0. For example:

SRC=@MT0

A partition on a tape can also be specified. For example:

SRC=@MT0:3

CD 
ROM

@CDx

The CD or DVD drive number. If you have a CD reader and a 
CD writer, in the Ghost.exe user interface you would see 
@CD1 and @ CD2. The number is optional if you are 
specifying an operation from the command-line.

You can specify partitions for the image stored on a CD for a 
restore operation. For example: 

SRC=@CD1:2
