Solve : Macrium Refelct CD Linux?? |
|
Answer» Ok so I made a linux rescue disk from macrium reflect and my question is do i have to make a new rescue disk for every computer because when i put it in a diff computer it would'nt boot. Is the other PC set with the CDROM as 1st boot device ? ? it booted with every other computer in the house. even my laptop. So exactly which machine won't boot to it ? ? the hp dc 533 sff. Not all CD players accept all makes of Media. Verbatim works well for me. Other brands do not fly. Alan Quote from: comda on November 22, 2010, 06:22:52 PM the hp dc 533 sff. Try installing Macrium to this machine and create the boot cd on it... Not quite sure why this is happening other than what Alan suggested... My boot CD works on all my machines.One other possibility is that Linux drivers do not support the same range of hardware as the "Vista PE" based drivers. If you paid for Macrium Reflect then you should be able to download Vista PE from them. Macrium Reflect does have a support forum and dedicated help. Regards Alan this computer runs windwos xp and The version was the free and legally free version.

I'm pretty sure there is no legally free version of windows XP... Quote from: BC_Programmer on November 23, 2010, 04:35:57 PM err... I'm pretty sure there is no legally free version of windows XP... No...but there is a Free LEGAL version of Macrium Reflect... Quote from: patio on November 23, 2010, 05:28:52 PM No...but there is a Free legal version of Macrium Reflect... I misunderstood... Carry on! Both Macrium Reflect Free and Macrium Reflect FULL are legal, but you pay for the FULL version I BELIEVE it is typical of all Boot CD's from Acronis and Macrium and others, that LINUX drivers do not work so well as "native" Windows drivers. Install Macrium on the HP and you can create a BartPE Boot CD which takes native drivers from the HP Windows Installation disc and you should then have drivers compatible with the HP platform. The FULL version also allows you to download and use the Windows PE 2.0 Rescue CD with RAID support. Differences FULL vs FREE at http://www.macrium.com/reflectfree.asp N.B. I have an Acer Laptop and it cannot even write to one brand of CD - it FAILS to read information to even know if it is CD or DVD, Regards Alan |
