easeus disk copy from ubcd not booting
Posted: Sun Oct 17, 2010 8:38 pm
I'm not sure if this is a troubleshooting topic, a request for updating, or something else.
Here's what I experienced.
Testing UBCD 5.03 using MobaliveCD VM, I selected Easeus Disk Copy (EDC in this topic, for short).
The "virtual" boot process of EDC hung. I should have seen 3 options at the middle of the screen:
1) Start EDC
2) Boot from HDD
3) Reboot.
but this options didn't show up.
I downloaded EDC from tucows and tested the EDC iso image, also using MobaliveCD.
This time I see the 3 options' menu. I couldn't actually run EDC from the menu, but this is another problem, probably related to the qemu VM compatibility with EDC (or the other way around) in MobaliveCD.
I burnt UBCD 5.03 to a DVD-RW and tested EDC from there. Also this time, while trying to run EDC from UBCD 5.03, the EDC boot process hangs.
My point is that using UBCD 5.03 I don't get even to the first options menu of EDC.
So my conclusion (I may be wrong) is that "something" is wrong/different from UBCD 5.03 starting EDC, than from running EDC directly.
Either the EDC iso image is newer than the one included in UBCD 5.03; or the starting options to run it are not the best fitted ones; or maybe a combination of those.
Can anyone reproduce this behavior?
TIA.
