unicorn is on a distinguished road
Ok, I should have read all the posts in this thread before replying. Shame on me.
Ghost is supposed to format restore. In case you restore an image to a partition that is slightly larger than the first partition you had when making the image Ghost will even format the whole new partition. At least Ghost as I know it, before the latest version (which isn't Ghost really but the other one, now forgot the name... from Powerquest I think...).
What Ghost version is it you have? I'm asking as I find this problem ridiculous. The imaging software should, par definition, format (at least by a sector by sector writing manouvre) the target partition. In case Ghost doesn't make it anymore it is time to change to BootItNG maybe?!
