Downloaded BD rescue iso on 2/7/14


tried to use on HP notebook 2000 with Windows 8 with EUFI


I disabled secure boot in BIOS and enable Legacy boot


to boot from CD


Rescue starts, but does not see available disk partions


Is this version capable of recognizing GPT or only able


to identify MBR, as I presume this is the problem


Rescue only sees a small portion of disk memory, tries to update definitions but halts,


will start a scan but only sees a small disk partition ( the GPT maybe?)

Comments

  • Under windows 8, the default power off behaviour is hybrid shutdown. This closes user sessions and saves kernel state to disk in a partial hibernation.


    NTFS-3g, which is used to mount NTFS partitions, refuses to mount partitions in this state for fear of damage.


    To get around this, you may either disable this feature or make sure that you ask for a restart in windows.
