Using dos version of ghost 2003 to ghost and restore suse 10.2

We use ghost 2003 at our school for working with windows.  I works very well.  We want to tesy suse 10.2 so we....    Install suse 10.2 get it set... boot from a flash drive in dos, map a drive to our novell server run ghost to take the image and all is well.  When I bring the image back down the cpu boots suse10.2 and then halts "no message login because /var file system is not accessable.  /var is ext3.  I might be bigger or smaller than the original system that I took the image on.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ron
