Dell Inspiron 15z UEFI Windows 8 restore fails...

Thread needs solution

Ok, so I booted off the Linux rescue cd using UEFI and backed up the whole disk on this new Dell Inspiron 15z laptop. I wanted to test the restore to make sure it worked. I again booted off the same disc and attempted to restore the whole GPT disc rather than volumes (it had a bunch or volumes, ESP, WinRE, Diag, OS, Recovery, and I think one other one. . It gets to about 95% done restoring and then stops with a message saying interaction needed, reboot required. It will not finish the restore. Has anyone seen this issue before?

Hello John,

thank you for posting your question!

I will be glad to assist you.

Could you please provide me with more information about your system configuration?

Have you chosen as restore destination the same disk or a new one? How was this disk partitioned? 

Best of all create disk reports on the old and new systems using the bootable media.

Thank you in advance!
