Backup/Resote + MBR issue with Norton Ghost

captain neenaw
Scenario - I have XP on my first partition, Linux on the second partition. As far as I can tell, the MBR jumps to the beginning of the linux partition where the bootloader splash screen loads. If I choose to load XP, it then jumps back to the beginning of the first partition and loads XP.

Question about Ghosting & Security, (norton Ghost)

zytec
To cut a long story as short as possible:- Due to an upgrade I want to use a PC that has had office accounts and other sensitive material on, as an open use internet PC in the main office area. Now obviously I will transfer all the sensitive data, then delete it completley, (not leave it in the recycle bin).
