Symantec is not very helpful with the 29089 error: it only says I need Ghost 2003 in order to write an image to an external drive. There seem to be a dozen different USB drivers I could try, but since my external drive is already recognized and assigned a drive letter by DOS, I wonder: Could different USB drivers change anything about Ghost.exe's ability to write to the drive? (All of these files come from making Ghost2003 boot diskettes.) These do not seem to do any harm but ghost.exe still crashes when writing the image to the external USB drive. (But I do run Iomega's guest.exe utility in autoexec.bat, so maybe this takes care of the assignment?) I add to config.sys:Īnd I see the drivers get loaded successfully as config.sys is processed. I don't even have to add any USB driver to config.sys, strangely. I don't seem to have any problem getting the drive recognized by DOS (a drive letter is assigned and I can cd to the drive and see, change contents). Now I am trying to create the image on a new Iomega external "enclosure" HD. I have been doing this for two years without problems, always creating the image on another partition of the same HD of the same system. I boot from my custom DOS98SE CD and use a batch file to invoke ghost.exe (2003, build 793) to make a partition image. Ghost.exe crashes, sometimes after having written several GB of image, with this error:Ībort: 29089, write to image file failed. I am trying to use Ghost2003 to create a partition image directly on an external USB 2.0 drive.
