Ghost is typically used with a boot disk. You boot the computer from the disk, run the ghost executable and create an image. This image can be place on either a network server, or a second harddrive in the same computer. As far as I know, you cannot image a disk partition with a running OS on it. The contents of the partition would change during the imaging process, making the image file worthless.

Is there some sort of utility for creating a bootdisk?
