I am trying to create a bootable floppy for Windows NT that will let me connect to a shared folder over the network to pull down an image to the machine using Ghost 6.x..... Multicasting is out of the question because I'll take down our entire network, firstly; and secondly I can't get the multicast server to accept an image dump from my NT machines. When I try to push the pulled image out it corrupts whatever machine I tried to send it to.

I have read all the documentation I can find and it's useless. I have asked to upgrade to the new Ghost Solution Suite but my company is hopelessly cheap.

HELP!
 
I have done this before by creating a TCP/IP bootcd (look up Ultimate Boot CD in google -- it's great) or you can you use Bart's TCP/IP boot disk (again lookup Bart PE in google). I am able to map to a share and run standard ghost and from there write the image to the mapped share drive.
