How to determine which drive to image or if the drive is available for imaging when in linux preboot

Environment

Linux Preboot

Resolution

Ghost Solution Suite 3.x

once the mount to the express share is completed run the following command:

cd ./mnt/express/ghost

if using 32bit preboot run: ./gdisk

if using 64bit preboot run ./gdisk64

 

Deployment Solutions 8.x

run the following command:

cd \opt\Symantec\Deployment\Ghost

./gdisk  ( this command is for both x86 and x64 architecture )

Example Output: 

 

The STDOUT will number the drive(s) seen.

If the drive for the Hard Drive is 1 then put that value in the DST=<#> parameter

 

If the drive is not seen then a linux source driver must be located, compiled, and imported into BootWiz

Here is a document to compile a linux driver:
