Restoring a disk (partition) from an image
28
Copyright © Acronis, Inc., 2000–2004
If you are to restore an image from removable media, e.g. CD, first insert the last CD first and
then insert them in order starting from the one created first.
If you provided a comment to the image, it will help you know if you selected the
right image to restore. The comment is displayed in the right part of the window.
Note that the comment can be seen without entering a password for a protected
image. However, the contents of such an image will still require a password.
If an image was protected with a password, Acronis True Image will ask for it. The
Next button will be disabled until you enter the correct password.
If you are to restore a disk (partition) from an incremental image, you must have the current
image as well as at least one, or preferably all, previous incremental ima
g
es and the initial
complete ima
g
e. The exact number of ima
g
es depends on how disk contents chan
g
ed
between image creation procedures.
5.2 Checking image integrity before restoration
Before an image is restored, Acronis True Image can check its integrity.
To do this, flag Yes, I want to verify the image archive on the Verify Archive Before the
Restoring page of the image restoration wizard.
Checking image integrity before restoration
This is disabled by default in Acronis True Image.
5.3 Selecting a partition to restore
A single file might contain images of several partitions or even disks, as shown in
the figure below.
