Chapter 10. Creating bootable media

You can run Seagate BlackArmor Backup from an emergency boot disk on a bare-metal
system or a crashed computer that cannot boot. You can even back up disks on a non-
Windows computer, copying all its data into the backup archive by imaging the disk one
sector at a time. To do so, you will need bootable media that has a copy of the standalone
Seagate BlackArmor Backup version installed on it.
If you purchased the boxed product, you already have a bootable CD, because the
installation CD itself is bootable in addition to serving as the program installation disk.
Seagate BlackArmor Backup also provides the ability to create an ISO image of a bootable
disc on the hard disk.

If you have chosen not to install the Bootable Media Builder during Seagate BlackArmor

Backup installation, you will not be able to use this feature.

When booting from the Rescue Media, you cannot perform backups to disks or partitions
with Ext2/Ext3, ReiserFS, and Linux SWAP file systems.

1. Choose Create Bootable Rescue Media in the Tools menu. You can also run the
Bootable Rescue Media Builder without loading Seagate BlackArmor Backup by choosing
Programs -> Seagate -> BlackArmor Backup-> Bootable Rescue Media Builder
from the Start menu.
2. Select which components of BlackArmor programs you want to place on the bootable
media.
