Acronis True Image 6.0

Does anybody use this, booting into dos??
I have looked for a tutorial, or step by step guide
for using it in dos.
Would like to hear from someone who has used it
in dos successfully
Thanks

Great program, I have used Drive Image and Ghost before but this one is in my opinion better. The main reason I find this one the best is its compability with W2K Servers. When it comes to booting from dos you either run it from a single boot CD or 4 floppy disks. There´s a Bootable Rescue Media Builder where you make the boot CD or floppy disks. Here´s some info including a user guide:

Try it!

I have looked at the manual, but i do not think it says anythin about using it in dos

Exactly what do you want to do in dos? I assumed you meant booting from rescue media to restore an unbootable system.

@Bads - I´m using this in W2K Advanced Server and Drive Image won´t run in it. I guess for workstations maybe Drive Image is better. One bad thing in Acronis is that you cannot check the integrity of an image. I haven´t had a bad one so far but it would be a good feature to be able to check it like in Drive Image.

to flshpanhunter...

I want to make an image of my C: drive, and then be able to restore it. I want to do this from Dos, rather than from Windows.
I have used Ghost many times, but some say that True Image is better
thanks

Right, when booting from the rescue CD you have the option to either restore or make an image.
