As I recall the main purpose of Ghost is to backup your HDD. The last version 
of Ghost I have is ver.4 and that doesn't provide any way of handling 
anything in excess of the image. You drop a 20 gig image onto a 120 gig drive 
and 
hope. 
There is no need to use an image file to move an OS to a new drive. There are 
several applications designed to do that job...... I use XXCopy.
The guy that posted the problem used a Ghost image and now has more problems 
than I would attempt to solve using an image file.

If he has no choice it becomes a different matter.
