ghost image query

hi guys, imaging is not my thing but i have a quick question.
hard drive was imaged with norton ghost 2003, disk was partitioned before ghost, c=20gb, d=40gb.
can i use this image on a hard drive that is not partitioned. what are the outcomes of such a bold adventure?
imge basically contained xp and a couple of installed apps, office and the likes.
any feedbacl will be most appreciated.

Misk,

My experience with Ghost is also somewhat limited.

Ghost images are Created in 2 ways as far i i know, Partitions or Disks.
When you make an image from the partition you deploy the partition back on a disk. and that also works on other disks if the correct space is free for the placing of the partition.

Disk images dump the disk back, i know it works on disk that have the Exact of a larger ammount is space on the disk.

Regards,

Ghost will create the partitions on the drive as it is imaging it. You will be able to define the sizes of each partition within ghost.
