Re: [H] Acronis bootable Rescue CD

2009-11-16 Thread Rick Glazier

(I don't have any 2010 Acronis programs yet.)
When you make the original Rescue CD you can have ALL
Acronis HD installed compatible programs added to the CD.
It makes its OWN bootloader, and OWN menu.
One menu item is Windows.
I have 4 or 5 other selections.
These programs run in Linux, with one exception.
You can force MS-DOS for one, but it limits features a lot.

You select the menu item you want, and it runs an almost
complete version of the Acronis program similar to what
is installed on the HD. (Not all features are supported.)

You can also add Acronis True Image to your MBR,
and have a boot F11  key selection. (No CD required at all.)
(Not sure what happens if HP/Compaq are already using that...

You can add an Acronis recovery partition and keep your
Image file there, but that assumes the HD will not fail.

When Acronis bootable Rescue CD boots up what happens... you boot 
into windows ... or do you boot up to a interface which allows you to 
restore a backup that is saved to your hard drive, USB drive, etc?

Choice.  You can boot into the Acronis software to do restores or backups
and then there's another option to boot into Windows.

There's also a way to add Acronis to your boot menu so you don't need the
CD.

Oh, that makes sense now... I saw that option but it wasn't explained.
