Cloning Drive
Currently I have the following dual boot configuration:
Booting from Microsoft Windows 7 64-Bit Professional
C: WIN7_64 500GB Hitachi Drive
D: WINXP_32 500GB Seagate Drive
E: DVD
F: Backup Drive 2TB conencted via E-SATA
Booting from Microsoft Windows XP SP1
C: WINXP_32 500GB Seagate Drive
D: WIN7_64 500GB Hitachi Drive
E: DVD
F: Backup Drive 2TB conencted via E-SATA
I want to clone the WIN7_64 Drive to the "Backup" drive and then use it in a Tri-Boot Configuration, The HP Elitebook 8560w allows me to pick the drive to boot from during the boot process via a BIOS selection. Each operating system has it's own drive.
If I use the Clone option in Acronis it will change the active drive to be the clone drive under the impression that I want to replace it. I have read the documentation and it appears that if I boot to WINXP and clone the WIN7_64 drive that this will not happen.
What is the recommended procedure?
