Overview: Setting Up the Recovery Environment

A V2416 computer, a 4 GB (min.) USB drive, and a copy of the recovery suite are all required to set up the

V2416’s system recovery environment.

The recovery procedure itself requires only a V2416 computer and a bootable USB drive.

The following procedure describes the basic process of setting up the system recovery environment.

1. First, the recovery programs and system image file will be copied over to the USB drive, and the drive will

be set up to provide a system boot process by copying an ISO image of the boot environment to the USB.

2. The system will be re-booted, and BIOS will be manually configured to boot the system from the USB port.

3. An image of the current software system will be created on the USB drive, for the recovery environment to

use when restoring the system.

4. The system will be re-booted again, and the BIOS returned to its original state.

Step 1: Prepare the USB drive

1. Load the software DVD that came with your V2416 computer and execute tuxboot-windows-23.exe

from the software DVD

\recovery\V2416W7E folder, select Pre-Downloaded, and click the button

marked with an ellipsis (…) to browse the file system and find the location of the boot environment’s ISO

image.

2. Navigate to

\recovery\on the software DVD and select the boot environment’s ISO image.

3. Set the device Type (lower left-hand corner) as USB Drive, then set the Drive dialog to the letter under

which the USB is currently mounted.
