System Recovery
Definitions
Recovery Partition (R-P): The R-P is preinstalled by the manufacturer on
the hard disk drive to allow the user to restore the computer system back to
its original state. This function is typically used in cases of a non-repairable
computer virus or system malfunction. The R-P is hidden from the user.
User Partition (U-P): The U-P stores the user data added to the original
system.
When the system boots the user will see the following message:
If the user presses F10 or R (hot keys), the local recovery begin. The user
should be aware of the Selecting Recovery Options. The following dialog
will appear:
The default mode is non-destructive. In this mode, the data in U-P stays
intact. If the user clicks Next, the non-destructive recovery will take place.
