Unable to load linux kernel error - Help me!

Thread needs solution

Hello All,

This is my first post, and i am sure that this topic has been posted before.

I have just built myself a new PC running windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS. I had got it how i wanted it, and went to run my trusty Acronis TIH 2009 boot cd i created to take an image of my HDD for restore purposes.

However when doing so, the interface comes up but with no mouse working, and then when you select to use the loader the "Unable to load linux kernel -please press enter to rebbot" comes up.

Having purchased this full retail version, i really could do with overcoming this problem, but dont really want to have to purchase another version to do so, as it works fine on all my other computers in the house.

Your advice and support on this is much welcomed and appreciated.

If someone from Aconis can arrange for the iso replacement that would be wonderful if that would cure it.

Having googled the above it seems that a newer iso can be downloaded from someone somewhere to overcome this.

Thanks in advance everyone.

Regards.

Version 2009 does not support Windows 7 so your chances of making it work is not good--especially if the TI Boot CD will not boot. If your boot CD is not the last updated version for 2009, (build 9809, Nov 20, 2009), you can download the 9809 build from your Acronis Webpage.

You may have some success of getting the CD to boot by creating a new CD just in case there is a problem with the existing CD.

One option is try the free trial version pf 2012.

Hi groverH,

Many thanks for you reply. I will try both of the things you suggested and post back my results. From what you are saying though, it looks like a purchase upgrade may be in order which is a bit frustrating!

That said though, I have two laptops both running Win7 one 32 bit, 1 64 bit and I know I have imaged the 32 bit one. Perhaps that is the issue?

I'll post back in due course.

Thanks again

Before you make any changes of programs, be sure each system has an up-to-date full disk backup so that you have "fall back" plans should you have a hardware issue. It is always best to be safe--just as a precaution.
