Recovery Disk not finding external backup drive

Thread needs solution

True Image 2014

When booting from Acronis recovery CD it won't find external backup drive even using browser. Booting from System 7 from internal drive, however, finds the external backup along with the .tib files.

I'd appreciate any tips about how to find my external backup drive with the .tib files so I can recover my disk image.

Thank you.

Answering my own question: I downloaded another bootable recovery disk image and burned to CD. That did the trick, at least once. When I rebooted from that new recovery CD multiple times, same problem; I could not find the external backup disk with the .tib files. I burned another bootable recovery CD from the downloaded Acronis file, and I can now see the .tib files in the external backup drive from the newest recovery disk.

Very strange!
