Creating a Backup of Bootable Disk and Recovery Image
When you purchased your new system, a copy of the recovery image was loaded into a
hidden partition on your hard disk drive. Having a copy of the recovery image available to
you means that in the eve nt of system failure, you will be able to restore it and re-install
the essential a cc es s software using Fujitsu Software Auto Installer.
To make a copy of the recovery image to DVD disks, you will need three or four blank
disks to create the copy. After creating the copy, be sure to label the disks and keep
them in a safe place to ensure they do not get damaged.
