Acronis is another imaging tool that actually works with ext3 ext
reiserfs and it will support GRUB.

Subject: Removing Grub for Ghost image?

Symantec's web site states that Ghost 2003 (what I have) will NOT work
with Grub.

I have RHEL4 installed on a dual-boot machine I want to image.  I have a
bootable DOS disk and performed an fdisk /mbr, but Ghost still
complained.  
The machine did boot into Windows, though, so Grub apparently had been
removed.

Not knowing what else to do, I'm re-imaging the machine with the XP
image I preserved, and am reinstalling RHEL4 but with no boot loader.

What else could I be missing to fully remove Grub and permit Ghost to
work?

It would be most helpful to at least have Grub working during the
install, then have a proven way to remove it, image the system, then I
can reinstall Grub after the image.

Any help/insights appreciated.

Scott
