Image Second Drive Only
-
It is 1.2.0.
-
Did you try this setting (might not be there in 1.2.0):
Partition: Multiple Partition Image - All Disks (Not Resizeable)
?
-
Yes, I did try that. I selected the OS as Windows 7, there is no provision to choose two OSs. It did not work. I can’t recall the exact error message but the PC kept rebooting trying to run the task.
-
Oh I bet that’s what’s messing it up…
You have to choose the OS type in order to image successfully, and you have two different OSs…
I don’t know how to fix that…
You could copy each disk independently ? Use the RAW option.
Take one HDD out, leave the other. Image that as RAW, then take that HDD out and put in the other, image that as RAW…
Then, you’d have TWO images… and if you wanted to restore, it’d probably work this way… idk…
But these images are going to be HUGE, so you know, because RAW does not resize or compress.
What is this for? Do you need to image hundreds of PCs, or do you just want an image of YOUR PC ? Have you tried Clonezilla ?

I thought about the one-drive-at-a-time idea but it is clunky. This is just one PC, I have only a few that are dual boot, all the others have only one OS/drive to image. I was hoping to use the same imaging configuration. It would be really cool if there was the ability to select only one drive to image from within FOG.
-
I was sure you could target a partition to image to somewhere (like SDB1 or SDA2 or whatever) but I might be wrong
-
@Trevelyan You can, but this guy has two HDDs, with two OSs…
-
OK, so if I want to image only the E: drive how do I do it?
-
-
I don’t understand your message.
-
@geoffpeters I don’t know how to do it, so I notified the Developers to look at your post.
-
Thank you, I appreciate your help.

If you know exactly what the device will be called on a linux environment (not C:, D:, but rather /dev/sda or /dev/sdb or so on) then you can set the host device to only look at that particular device by setting the kernel device parameter.
-
Where do I do that? Can I do it in the FOG GUI or from a command prompt?
