No. Someone posted a message concerning a problem using Ghost with FC3 last December. There's a workaround for this problem at the end of the bug report.

OK I looked at the bug report.
Did you have a question?

Oh, well why didn't you just say that? Hehe
But... While your procedure might work, it requires removing several features that many people count on.
I think pressure should be put on Symantec to fix the problem rather than turning off resize and SElinux capabilities.

And does partimage or one of the other similar utilities deal with this correctly?

Last time I needed to make a backup image of my system, I simply put in another drive and used G4U which worked great. I have only done that twice, and haven't run into any problems. YMMV

Filing a bug report against Fedora because its bleeding edge open source filesystem doesn't work with a piece of commercial Windows-centric software strikes me as a tad out of line. This forum, though, with an appropriately titled thread so that an interested user is likely to find it in a search, as it is now, is appropriate. Anyone disagree?
Those who have paid Symmantec for a recent copy of Ghost should in fact beat on them for a fix--in an appropriate venue for reporting *Symmantec* bugs. Whether they will find it in their interest to do so remains to be seen.
