Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2697449 By: szaka You dd partition or disk? It's not the same. dd'ing a disk is supposed to work. Boot also must work if you ntfsclone a partition after dd'ing a disk because the partition table is ok. But if you [cs]fdisk/parted a disk and then ntfsclone then it's not necessarily work. Of course if you dd a disk after this then that will work too but not if you dd only the partition. When boot fails due to not being able to access a file then it usually means BIOS calls can't access all the needed files during boot and before Windows would get full control (1024 cylinders limit, etc) because e.g. the CHS values in the partition table aren't ok. it's a very well known issue when one wants to clone a system but make a mistake. On the other hand, ntfsclone corrupting files were never reported or noticed although it's used actively for over a year. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
