True Image 9 or Norton Ghost
|

| I want to get rid of my diskette library. I have a lot of a old
software on diskettes that I want to save on CD. For example, I have
some Borland C++ diskettes (14 diskettes in the set) that I would like
to create images of and then put them all on a single CD so that, if I
ever wanted to re-install the stuff, I could do it from one CD rather
than 14 diskettes.
My question is, will True Image or Norton Ghost help me accomplish this
task. If so, which one might be a better at the job.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Tom

No. Neither is intended to image diskettes.
There is software around to create diskette images (rawrite,
FPack, DCopy and the like.)
But bear in mind that some software can only be installed from
the original distribution disk.
