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. (see following screen image)
