Selecting an archive when booted from a rescue CD
In rescue mode Acronis True Image Server for Linux cannot access LVM disks. This means
that an LVM volume image can be deployed on a MBR disk only.
A system, restored from an LVM volume image over an MBR disk, cannot boot because its kernel tries to
mount the root at LVM volume. To boot the system, change the loader configuration and /etc/fstab so
that LVM is not used. Then reactivate your boot manager as described in
6.3.11.
6.5 Setting restore options
To view or edit the default restore options, select Tools -> Options -> Default
Restoration Options from the main program menu.
You can edit the default (or set the temporary) restore options while creating a restore task
as well.
