Re: [OT] Can i copy a Laptop hardrive over network ?

["Matthew Norman" <mafiu@xxxxxxx>]

I've done that Dean, using ghost in a dos box, you can ghost to an image on
a mapped drive,- but worked for me.

Getting the image back onto the laptop is a bit trickier, mostly in the
creation of a dos boot disk that activates the network card in the laptop.
If its a pcmcia card its a fiddle, but definately possible.
