Thanks for the response. I've gone through an expert restore and unticked those options, however I am still presented with a GRUB prompt after the image is restored.
Any other idea's?

Hi, still haven't had any luck trying a combination of all available expert options. The partition is actually a ZEN partition, so I will be doing some further investigation and will post results once I have them.

Is Zen partition an special partition provided by Novell?
I found some info about zen partition at http://www.novell.com/support/viewContent.do?externalId=3003348&sliceId=1
It looks like special boot partition …. If it use some special boot loader trick, it might not easy for us to reproduce and solve it.

Hi Jazz, yeah its deffinately a special partition used by Zenworks 10. If it was my choice I'd stick with single NTFS partitions, but unfortunately I haven't had much input with the desktop project this time round.
If anyone has any luck with getting this partition to restore successfully let me know. At the moment I'm just re-installing the loader after the image gets deployed by drbl

Hi guys, I hope someone can help me with this issue.
Currently I am doing a save-parts for a machine with partition 1 (ext2 with GRUB) and partition 2 (NTFS)
However, after resotring the image the GRUB boot loader sits at the GRUB> prompt. It seems as though it isn't being saved correctly.
Does anyone have any experience with respect to ensuring GRUB is preserved after imaging?
Thanks for any help in advance.

Read over this FAQ:
http://drbl.sourceforge.net/faq/fine-print.php?path=./2_System/88_mbr_related_options.faq#88_mbr_related_options.faq
I would play with those options and see if any variation of them works for you. I would start with -g unchecked and -j2 checked.
