Restoring a dual boot Mac from an external USB drive

Let’s assume that your Mac fails to boot because of a hard disk malfunction. But you’ve got a backup of your hard disk

on an external USB drive. Just replace the failed disk with a new one and carry out a bare metal restore.

To restore a dual boot Mac from a backup image located on an external USB drive, please do the following:

1. Start up the computer from our Linux/DOS recovery media.

Recovery Media Builder can help you prepare the Linux/DOS or WinPE recovery

environment either on a CD/DVD disc or a thumb drive.

To automatically boot from the recovery media please make sure the on-board BIOS is set

up to boot from CD/USB first.

2. Connect an external USB drive to the computer.

3. Restart the computer.

4. In the boot menu select Normal Mode to use the Linux recovery environment, since it’s the only mode that

enables to work with USB devices.

By default the Normal Mode will be automatically initiated after a 10 second idle period.

5. In the Linux launch menu select the Restore Wizard.
