    I'm glad it worked.

    The above doesn't apply to Linux on a GPT disk in a UEFI system. GRUB2 is in the EFI System partition and not in the First Track.

    Since I'm working on a thousand things right now, can someone answer me the following question...

    Can an x86 version of the IFL BOOT disk be made on an x64 installation... or do I have to do what I think I may have to do?

    Thanks!

    Hello @TheRollbackFrog ,

    I am fairly certain that it can. If you are on a 64-bit machine with TeraByte installed, the version of IFL you have will be 64-bit. You would have to download the 32-bit version of IFL from the TeraByte website in order to do what you want.

    Well, when I load the full package (Drive Image & BAckup) on an x86 System, the installed x86 version runs fine but the IFL BOOT Disk Creator only offers an x64 version for creation.

    I even went back to Terabyte and tried to get the IFL TRIAL... the GUI version is unavailable in x86 (dead LINK), only the CUI version was available in x86. The x86 CUI version ran fine.

    I'm trying to build a BOOT media for use with old x86-only machines (Atom-based Netbooks, etc.)

    OK, I finally dug it all out of the System and was able to accomplish my task... thanks for the help along the way!

    Hello @TheRollbackFrog ,

    I knew that with IFW version 3.33 dated October 16, 2019, with IFW there was a change made to be packaged with IFL x64 version instead of IFL x86 version. I only have x64 here so I did not know for sure if the x86 version of IFL would install on an x86 machine or not. I did not realize that the link was dead from the main IFL download page but it is available from the "Existing Customers Download Portal" as I just tried and verified it there. I assume you are looking for a trial and not a licensed version...
