[ale] Two questions

[Atlanta Geek]

Hi Dylan.
Avnet is our server provider and our eventual goal is for them to
install our image at their site and ship the server.
They suggested I use Ghost 11.
A couple more questions about ghost 11. Does Ghost 12 work as well?
Is there anything online detailing how to do this.  since the server
is linux I assume I need some sort of windows or dos boot disk.
