-CRC32 switch usage
Files not checked with CRC
The switch vexcept=filename specifies files that are not checked with CRC. This is
normally used to exclude files that are always changed on start up. A sample
exception file follows:
[ghost exclusion list]
\PERSONAL\PHONE
[partition:1]
\WINDOWS\COOKIES\*.*
\WINDOWS\HISTORY\*
\WINDOWS\RECENT\*
\WINDOWS\USER.DAT
\WINDOWS\TEMPOR~1\CACHE1\*
\WINDOWS\TEMPOR~1\CACHE2\*
\WINDOWS\TEMPOR~1\CACHE3\*
ghost.exe -crc32,action=create Creates an ASCII CRC32 file from the
primary hard drive. Note that the
default disk is the primary drive. The
default ASCII CRC32 file is Ghost.crc.
ghost.exe -crc32,action=create,src=
2,crcfile=myfile.txt
Creates an ASCII CRC32 file,
Myfile.txt. This example uses disk 2 as
the source drive and the output file.
ghost.exe -crc32,action=verify Verifies the contents of the primary
disk against a default ASCII CRC32
file, Ghost.crc (in the current
directory). The default disk is the
primary drive. The default
verification list file is Ghost.ls.
ghost.exe -crc32,action=verify,src=
1,crcfile=myfile.txt,vlist=myfile.out
Verifies the contents of the primary
disk, 1, against the CRC32 file,
Myfile.txt. This example Myfile.out as
the verification list file.
ghost.exe -crc32,action=verify,src=
1,crcfile=myfile.txt,vlist=myfile.out,vexcept=my
file.exc
Verifies the contents of the primary
disk against a CRC32 file. Same as
above with the inclusion of the
EXCEPTION argument that excludes
compared files based upon its entries.
