Hi Amos,

If you have the GHOST installation program, there should be a program
called "ghost explorer".
You can copy this ghost explorer program to your windows, and use wine
to run it. It should run perfectly ok (see here:
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=8060&iTestingId=12213
)

After running it, you can select your .gho file to open them (make
sure you have ALL OF THEM accessible because the program will require
the first and the last one), and then you can select which files to
extract. I'll warn you: the process takes time, as it's kinda slow..

Hope this helps,
Hetz
