Acronis unreliable; problems booting from rescue media and restoring
This is the latest version (build 5545). I am running Windows 7, on an Intel SSD drive.
I have the trial version of Acronis. I did a backup of my entire C: drive, I did a "full".
The .tib-file was created and no errors, 40GB file. I restarted and tested to boot from Rescue media. It worked and started up, and I tested the steps up until actually restoring.
Then I thought "fine, it works".
Then due to some messing about with the computer, I now decided (a day later) to restore the entire C: drive. So I put in the rescue media, reboot and then get all sorts of errors.
After the text saying that Acronis is starting, instead of actually starting it I get these errors, in some order I dont rememver now:
Unable to load linux kernel from boot cd
Unable to load initial ramdisk
and something else I think. It seems random as to what errrors occur, because sometimes i get 1 error, then it continues to the menu anyways, the next reboot it stops and no menu.
When I managed to get into Acronis at boot, I am unable to actually restore the C-drive. I'll update this post with the error.

Nah, no changes really. I have messed around with harddrives, but nothing else really.
Its weird, and unreliable =(
Whats the difference between the bootable image I can download, and the one the program can create for me?

None, but it is possible the program based one is corrupted in some way, whereas the download version is ready built just needs to be burned to CD via a program that can convert the ISO to a CD file.
