Selecting Partition Type - ACRONIS TRUE IMAGE SERVER 8.0-LINUX User Manual

All the data stored on the restored partition will be replaced by the image data, so be careful and do not
overwrite data that you might need but haven't backed up yet.

Selecting partition type

When restoring a partition, you can change its type, though it is not required in most cases.
To illustrate why you might need to do this, let's imagine that both the operating system and
data were stored on the same primary partition on a damaged disk. You are forced to
restore the partition from a backup to another hard disk with its own partitions and OS.
