2.1. Installing Acronis True Image Home 2010 Netbook

Edition

To install Acronis True Image Home 2010 Netbook Edition:

• Run the Acronis True Image Home 2010 Netbook Edition setup file.

• Before installation, you can check for a newer Acronis True Image Home 2010 Netbook Edition

build on the Acronis Web site. If available, the newer version will be offered for installation.

• In the Install Menu, select the program to install: Acronis True Image Home 2010 Netbook

Edition. Acronis True Image Home 2010 Netbook Edition will check whether your netbook’s

processor is supported by the program. In case the supported processor is not found, the

installation will be terminated.

• Follow the install wizard instructions on the screen.

Typical, Custom and Complete installation is available. Having pressed Custom, you can choose

not to install Rescue Media Builder.

With Rescue Media Builder you can create bootable rescue disks (see details in Creating bootable

media (p. 101)). You might not need this tool if you purchased a boxed product that contains a

bootable CD. Installing the Bootable Rescue Media Builder will allow you to create bootable

media or its ISO image at any time from the main program window or by running Bootable

Rescue Media Builder on its own.

When installed, Acronis True Image Home 2010 Netbook Edition creates a new device in the Device

Manager list (Control Panel → System → Hardware → Device Manager → Acronis Devices → Acronis

True Image Backup Archive Explorer). Do not disable or uninstall this device, as it is necessary for

connecting image archives as virtual disks (see Exploring archives and mounting images (p. 109)).
