Can I setup/install or use Rollback Rx on a Dual boot or Multi-boot System configuration?
Yes, you can. However, you would need to install RollBack Rx on both OS's. To understand the reasoning behind this type of installation, you need to realize that RollBack Rx has 2 logical parts:
The Subconsole, which is the mini OS that boots prior to Windows.
The GUI component - which is the Windows component that hooks into the Subconsole
The first time you install Rollback Rx, the Subconsole component is installed BELOW the Windows OS. In addition, a GUI component is also loaded onto the primary (first OS of the Dual boot system) Operating System.
The next setup step would be to Only install the GUI component onto the secondary (Second OS of the Dual boot system).
Because the Subconsole part is already installed and loaded under Windows, it will be operational no matter what OS you are running. The GUI then allow you to control RollBack Rx and its subconsole - where you can see the snapshots, perform the restores, etc.
Do not install a Linux partition. When you are running under Linux, RollBack Rx is not loaded. This implies 3 things:
Only the Baseline is visible to LINUX.
Rollback is not running. Therefore, any changes made by LINUX to Drive 0 instantly corrupts the Baseline, as far as Rollback is concerned.
A corrupted baseline implies that every snapshot (which is incremental on the baseline) is instantly corrupted.
Your system will become unusable. You will have to restore the Disk from an external backup to recover. |
