Operation Manual

Notes

 If you have chosen not to install the Bootable Media Builder during Acronis True Image Home

2012 installation, you will not be able to use this feature.

 When booting from the Rescue Media, you cannot perform backups to disks or partitions with

Ext2/Ext3/Ext4, ReiserFS, and Linux SWAP file systems.

 Please keep in mind that the backups created by the later program version may be incompatible

with the previous program versions. Due to this reason, we strongly recommend that you create

a new bootable media after each Acronis True Image Home 2012 upgrade.

 When booting from the rescue media and using a standalone version of Acronis True Image

Home 2012 you cannot recover files and folders encrypted with use of the encryption available in

Windows XP and later operating systems. For more information see File-level security settings for

backup (p. 68). On the other hand, backups encrypted using the Acronis True Image Home 2012

encryption feature can be recovered.

8.2.1.1 Rescue media contents selection

You can select which components of Acronis programs you want to place on the bootable media. If

you have other Acronis products installed on your computer, such as Acronis Disk Director Home, the

bootable versions of these programs' components will be offered as well.

Acronis True Image Home 2012 offers the following components:

 Acronis True Image Home - includes support of USB, PC Card (formerly PCMCIA) and SCSI

interfaces along with the storage devices connected via them, and therefore is strongly

recommended.

 Acronis System Report - the component allows you to generate a system report that is used for

collecting information about your system in case of any program problem. Report generation will

be available before you start Acronis True Image Home 2012 from the bootable media. The

generated system report can be saved to a USB flash drive.
