Hi,
I was going to make a backup clone of my SGI320,
I thought, but it didn't work at all.
I moved the disk to a computer with a normal BIOS Smile
and used Ghost7.5 as cloningprogram. Ghost warned
about wrong/unrecognized FAT format.
I checked with Partitionmagic to see what is said,
it complained about wrong partition table and I got
no information.
The OS on the SGI320 is Win2K.

Is it possible to do a clone?
Have anyone tried it and succeeded?

regards
Bjorn

see

The section entitled
How can I fix a faulty FAT boot partition

Should give you the needed info

See also the section on ding a clean install

Thank you. I will try fixing the FAT and then

clone again. Maybe I do a fresh install on
another disk and then experiment on that :-)

BTW. That SGI320 site is excellent
