GHS format in Ghost

This type of format is usually saved with other GHS file segments and a GHO format and extension file, which contains the initial segment of the disk image.

Beginning with Symantec Ghost version 6.5, segment files use the naming convention of filename, followed by a numeric 001, 002, 00N, and then the GHS extension, as follows 'name001.ghs', ' name002.ghs', 'name003.ghs', etc.

Norton Ghost was later renamed Ghost Solution Suite hosted by Broadcom.
