Hi all,

I used Ghost 7.5 to do a disk to disk copy of

- 60GB seagate hard drive ( redhat linux 7.3 )
- into a blank 60GB WD hard drive

but the cloned drive won't boot into linux but just hang in the
beginning.

Any one had tried clone a redhat drive? does it have to be exact same
drive inorder to clone? does powerquest driveimage works too?

thx

You might like to try asking in a Red Hat newsgroup or on a Red Hat
mailing list, or even in a generic Linux newsgroup. Very few people
here care that Red Hat doesn't work; we're Slackware users.

You need to provide a lot more detail than that. What exactly do you
get on the screen before it stops?

Why are you asking us? Many of us either don't know or don't care
about Ghost or RedHat. You're likely to get better answers in a
Ghost and/or RedHat forum.
