12. Unmount the mounted file systems and then reboot:

umount /mnt/system/dev/ umount /mnt/system/proc/ umount /mnt/system/boot/

umount /mnt/system/ reboot

13. Reconfigure the bootloader by using tools and documentation from the Linux distribution that

you use. For example, in Debian and Ubuntu, you may need to edit some commented lines in the

/boot/grub/menu.lst file and then run the update-grub script; otherwise, the changes might not

take effect.

10.8.2 How to reactivate LILO

Generally, you should refer to the boot loader manual pages for the appropriate procedure. There is

also the corresponding Knowledge Base article on the Acronis Web site. The following is an example

of how to reactivate LILO in case the system disk (volume) is deployed to identical hardware.

1. Boot from Linux installation CD and enter rescue mode;

2. Mount all partitions and change root from the temporary root to the root partition of the

installed system:

#mkdir /mnt/tmp

#mount /dev/sdXY /mnt/tmp (/dev/sdXY is the root partition)

#chroot /mnt/tmp

3. Run the following command to reactivate LILO:

#/sbin/lilo

4. Reboot.

10.8.3 About Windows loaders

Windows NT/2000/XP/2003

A part of the loader resides in the partition boot sector, the rest is in the files ntldr, boot.ini,

ntdetect.com, ntbootdd.sys. boot.ini is a text file that contains the loader configuration. Example:

[boot loader] timeout=30

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS [operating

systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft

Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect

Windows Vista/2007

A part of the loader resides in the partition boot sector, the rest is in the files bootmgr, boot\bcd. At

starting Windows, boot\bcd is mounted to the registry key HKLM \BCD00000000.
