Say I wanna burn 2gig of data onto some CDRs. How can I EASILY do it?
(no, I don't want to piece meal and have to divide up the data myself)
I have Easy CD Creator 4.0 but don't see how to do it, if it can?
Thanks in advance.

If I'm reading into your post correctly, I believe Norton Ghost does
what you want. I have version 6.01 (or something similar) from 1999 and
when I boot into DOS with my bootable floppy, I type the following to
get Ghost running and split the files up nicely so that they can be
archived onto CD's:
Ghost.exe -split=646
This specifies that no image file should be larger than 646MB.

kc.rr.com:
Look for a freeware utility called GSplit. RAR it down to 1 file then
GSplit it to 2 CD size pieces.

WinRar can do the splitting itself at compression time. No need for an

I use a prog called "filesplitter", no genius to it really. it creates a
batch file to go with the first disc, and can extract with that on any
computer with prompts to enter next disc when extracting.

I know Roxio Easy CD Creator 6.0 will auto span to multiple cdr's if
it won't fit on one cdr. I guess they left that out of 4.0? For disk
or partiton imaging Norton Ghost will span multiple cdr's.
It's really not hard to do yourself. Just use Winzip 8.1. It makes it as
easy as it possibly can be, even having pre-selected sizes for various
media.

Yeah, but does it image whole partitions - retaining their primary/logical
status so you can restore as was ?

No it won't, but the poster was talking about archiving large files, not an
entire partition. Using Norton to archive files is like using a sledgehammer
to nail a picture to the wall.OTOH it is a great backup utility for
partition images.
