Just bumping this up, as there was a question about this, and no official word yet from Acronis.
I have not tried to resize a vista partition, but i have move it without problems. As for OS Selector and Vista, I'll bump a post of mine about...
For icons, undocumented, but doable. And re-ordering the icons is just a matter of editing an xml file (although not with xml extension), although...
Does disabling loading cd drivers help a little?
WinGrub. Never used it myself, but having a Linux distro and using Grub (at least on some systems), it's quite flexible, and free. OS Selector now...
The Acronis official support will give you the same blurb. My personal experience is that installing OSS in its own small fat32 partition, away...
Create your new partition. Make it active. Reboot on install CD and install. That should do it. In worst case, hide first partition. Acronis os...
Vista not officially supported. Nonetheless have been using dd on the bootable cd without problems on vista partitions. Some reported disabling...
Depending on how you installed it, Vista has probably put its boot files in your XP partition, and the second menu you see is Vista's bootloader....
Have you tried just disabling OSS from its boot menu? You then get to chose which os to boot after (vista in your case). That way you know if...
Dug up this link in my bookmarks... A grub menu booting 100+ systems of Dos, Windows, Linux, BSD and Solaris... :blink: :wacko:
The free DiamondCS MD5 utility doesn't compute correct md5 hashes for very large files. I've tested with the latest Knoppix cd (696MB):...
Good to know grub can be standalone, didn't delve into that. I already install OSS in the first logical partition of the extended partition. And...
Yup. Although OSS immediately found and booted something like OSX (not officially supported), whereas had to input it manually in GRUB. If OSS...
Re: Making Vista visible to Acronis OS Selector: A Correction Making GRUB point to the right partition, making it active and chainloading Vista...
Maybe, just maybe, only the partition table was changed, and none of your data was actually touched. Maybe. I would have hope that DD's Recovey...
Have you tried this? And if your pagefile and/or mft happens to be at the end of the partition, that could also prevent a resizing.
Although they don't speak about it, I'm pretty sure Acronis has worked on Vista compatibility for DD since that April statement from the link...
Defragment; use a product that can do boot-time defrag also, and that will try to put folders/files to beginning of drive as much as possible (eg...
Tried using DD's Partition Recovery? Refer to manual for instructions.
Any reason why you won't name that third partition's os name? Or how it usually boots without os selector? If you disable os selector, then make...
I have no problems with an OS (eg Win2000, WinXP, Vista) in a primary active partition (with bootable part) well above 2GB line in a multiboot,...
Yes, but usually in such a situation the official acronis support will eventually ask you to fill their "acronis report"...
I think it's time for an answer from Acronis support! So go again to http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=777981&postcount=2 and follow...
Usually, proper Linux installers will let you install grub in the boot partition and let other boot managers chainload grub; Suse for example lets...
