Ah, forgot about that. FreeDOS doesn't support files over 2 GB, so I guess that rules it out. > I use ghost (Symantec, ex-Norton) with Freedos, and I have already some > ghost files >4Gb that I want to copy on my usb drive. You could always split them (*.000, *.001, *.002) and combine later. Actually, exFAT supports big files, but FreeDOS (wisely) doesn't implement it (patents, bah). > I saw that with Windows I cannot create 2 partitions on my usb key.

Dunno, check some of the Linux distros. There's probably some DOS tool, but I can't remember (or it isn't free and/or libre). Two I just searched for and found aren't free, for instance. But I've not frequently cloned drives, so I'm the wrong person to ask. (And Ghost used to have a DOS/DJGPP version, but that won't help here.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
