Nothing like spending three hours perfecting a "perfect" image to deploy at work to realize you just ghosted your drive over top of it!
Man thats gotta be painful. Thats also why you keep a backup elsewhere :P
lol yeah, I now have a 500GB External Harddrive I use to Ghost to. The drives in the machines are either 60 or 80GB so it's about impossible to mix the two up. I did however learn to always make a new folder for EACH image. Case in point. I made a image I named "accrm007" Afterwards I made another image called "accrm004". Ghost has to make multiple files when its a large image so it took the first 7 off the name and makes files like this
accrm001, maccrm002, maccrm003.maccrm005

So when I made the next image It took the first seven, which was the same and overwrote them. Oops! Live and learn, but the best part? See I made the image, then tested it. Worked so what I was doing was making room specific images. After I tested the one, I'd load it up change the printer and a couple software settings, run systemprep and reimage it again with the new name. Well I did eight images in a row. Closed out the "ticket" as the project was complete.

Next day went to image a lab i was prompted for the next span. Big WTF momment until I realized what I did. I can laugh about it now, it wasn't so funny then lol.
