When restoring a partition over an existing one, the target
partition is deleted from the disk along with its entry in the target
disk MBR. Then, with the
preserve_mbr
option, the restored
partition’s entry will occupy the upper empty position in the
target disk MBR. Thus, the target disk MBR is preserved. If not
specified, the restored p
artition’s entry will occupy the same
position as in the source disk MBR saved in the image. If the
position is not empty, the existing entry will be moved to another
position.
