DD 11 Home: Can't boot DD from CD

Thread needs solution

HW AMD Athlon II X4 640
OS Windows 7

The original DD11 Home is only in fully operation with the installated variant. However I need to start the bootable variant, to clone my harddrives.

Whenever I try to do so, I get the error message:
>> Acronis Loader: Severe Error: Boot drive (partition) not found <<

It failed on 3 different methods:
1. Using the original Acronis CD
2. Even after the installation of WinPE
3. I created a LINUX bootable CD, based on Acronis pointer http://kb.acronis.com/content/11764 and got the same severe error message.

How do I have to proceed with ??

Hello Juergen,

Welcome to our Forum, it's nice to have you with us. I understand your concern, and will do my best to help you.

Unfortunately it's not very obvious whether you've tried to download the updated bootable media from your account and burn it onto the CD.

In case you have already tried this solution and the issue remains, please gather Acronis Linux Report from the downloaded media, open a support request with the information attached, and let us know it's number - we will make sure it's handled in a proper way.

Should you have any additional concerns or questions - let us know, we will be glad to help you.

Thank you!
