115Backing up and restoring with CD-R/RW and DVD-R/RW
Saving an image file to an unsupported CD-R/RW or DVD-R/RW drive
Splitting an image file during a backup
To split an image file as it is created, run Norton Ghost from the command line in
DOS, using the -split and -autoname switches.
To split an image file as it is created
1 Start Ghost.exe using the -split and -auto switches.
For example:
a:\ghost.exe -split=600 -auto
See “Starting the Norton Ghost executable” on page 93.
2 Create and save the image file.
See “Creating a backup image file” on page 97.
The -split command in this example limits the image size to a maximum of 600
megabytes for any one segment. The -auto switch names each of the segments
numerically.
See “Command-line switches” on page 153.
