Custom CD is based on WinPE. It automakes connection to a server share.
Enumerates local hard drives and launches ghost32 unattended image dump for
each of them. Then, shuts down PC. This version works for ghost supported
filesystems only.

What prog did you use to write that? Some kind of scripting?
Automating GUI clicking?
This isn't a function of Ghost, or anything that is always a part of
WinPE.
Norton Ghost v9 is all GUI afaik (but my knowledge don't go far!).

VB?! or some other little EXE your script runs?

Ghost32 is part of Ghost 7/8 enterprise. It is scriptable.

Too bad it never was part of end-user versions. I found the EXE with google.
