Unable to complete full restore on Huawei Matebook pro x
So yesterday I install Acronis True Image 2018 on my laptop. I took a full PC backup and pointed the destination to shared drive on the network. Realizing restoring to the laptop from the network wouldn't work in case of a full system crash(it only has wifi, no ethernet), I copied the TIB file onto a thumbdrive and repointed Acronis to the thumbdrive to the restore. I then attempted to do a restore from the TIB on the thumbdrive and about 30 seconds into the restore I got an error saying something was wrong with my thumbdrive(there isn't its brand new). I then created a rescue media disc using the basic option, booted up from it, tried restoring the image and once it prompted me to reboot I go a 'boot device missing' error. Now I am installing the OS from scratch(not a big deal, it is a brand new laptop).
What am I doing wrong here? One thing to mention is due to my laptop only having one USB-A port, I have to use 2 thumbdrives for this. One is for the rescue media, and when it comes time to restore, I remove the rescue media and insert the 2nd thumbdrive with the actual image. This is due to the thumbdrive being formatted to FAT32 which can't accept files larger than 4GB. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it but thought I'd mention it.
Thanks
