In windows Ghost don't see the drive. PQ Partition Magic sees the drive, but it is unallocated. Maybe the reason why ghost can't see it. In Knoppix 'DD' only makes a 5mb file which cannot be the hard drive, as the os if 40mb or something. I can't use g4u, due to not having an ftp server (ok, my snap server can be an ftp, but i can't access it as one.) Diskpro cant see any drive in windows. Dolly closes on registration. Any ideas, as im stumped. When i put it back in the snap server, it recognised it fine.
The new drive (which i put in me pc) has 15 files on it, totalling 75mb. The original has 82 files totalling 76mb. Both will boot independent of each other. Yet on both there are no files of mine on it. It seems that 76mb must be the os.
However i formatted both. This is what i got. Original - 7 files - 75mb. New - 7 Files - 75mb. I noticed on the new drive during format that the total was 75,811 mb, but drops to 74,774 after the format. Wheres that 1037mb gone? After reinstallation of Java (34 files in the sup). The original drive had 56 (51 before restart) files totalling 79mb. I then removed the original and rebooted with just the new one (now it has 11 files, still 75mb) and it wouldn't let me install Java, from assist or from the web browser, any ideas from anyone? Both must keep the network share info on them, as it still had the info for the old drive. Anyone got any ideas how to get onto the os_private hidden folder?
Also bill, whenever i access your ftp from windows ftp (in explorer) it always times out when getting the files. Any ideas? Do i need an FTP client?
Someone asked about going back to v3 or something.
'This process cannot be cancelled once it is started and the server must not be shut down until its completion. Furthermore, an upgrade across a major version cannot be reversed.' So it would seem no..
Anyone who has bought a second hand snap server, would be worth checking its registered, it gives access to some files. Go to
www.snapappliance.com click on login or register on the left. Then enter your servers serial number.
For the ghost32.exe i will look for it tonight. It is version 2003 so it may have it.
