How to make rescue disk and create backups on an S10-2 with no CD/DVD drive

My usb opticle drive went south and I hardly ever use it so I figured this out and thought it might help someone else.
First you need a 1GB SD card or thumb drive and a usb hard drive.
Next go into your bios setup and move all usb and card slots to the top of the boot order under "Boot" menu.
Next google and download the free Macrium Refex Backup software.
Next follow these instructions.  http://www.macrium.com/blog/2008/09/23/HowToCreateABootableLinuxUSBStick.aspx
Complete process with backup takes about half an hour and no high tech knowledge required.
It works great and rescue SD boots right up from the SD card slot on the front.
Make your Macrium image backups on a usb hard drive.  This can be moved to a new hard drive if the old one fails and it will have an exact image of the original.

  • HT1420 How to make Apple ID and iCloud the same Id?

    How to make Apple ID and iCloud ID the same after they have been created?
    iTunes keeps asking for ID and passwords that were created differently.

    You can't im afraid. I wanted to do the same and got the following from Apple:
    I am sorry, you cannot update your email address to MobileMe address as each Apple ID is unique.
    Ross, I would like to let you know that, you cannot change your Apple ID if it was at any time a .Mac or MobileMe email address, even if your subscription has ended or been canceled.
    The email address that ends in .me is already an Apple ID as well, as when you set up a MobileMe email its automatically set up as an Apple ID. So you cannot use this email address on another account. It is permanently associated with your MobileMe Apple ID.
    This article provides helpful information when choosing which Apple ID to use with iCloud:
    Apple IDs and iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
    This page also covers topics such as moving MobileMe accounts to iCloud, managing your Apple ID, and how to get content purchased with multiple Apple IDs onto your iOS device.
    I hope this information was helpful. If you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to reply to this email and I will be more than happy to assist you further.
    Sincerely,

    I wrote back and tried to escialte the issue but got no where. The whole thing is very disappointing and I hope Apple sort it out eventually.

  • How to make the dblink and what is the use of this

    plz any body tell me "how to make the dblink and what is the use of this"
    sujit

    Do you understand how to make the Slider work using code to read its value?  You will need to look into that in order to do this.
    What you can do is have the yello rectangle be a movieclip that sits over the red rectangle and use the Slider to control the yellow rectangle's alpha property from 0 to 1.  That way the yellow will gradually fade as you slide.
    What you will then need  to do is figure out how to make the number of dots that appear reduce from 15 to 8 over the same range of the slider.  You need to use the fractional value from the slider to decide how many dots either appear or do not appear.
    You should not start new postings for the same topics that you arlready have postings for.  Doing so in the future might result in them being removed.

  • How to make an before and after effects?

    So, I want to make a video that show the audience this is before and after the edit. And i want to make it look like this YouTube Rewind 2014: Behind the Scenes - YouTube
    How to make it?
    Thanks:)

    Really? You take footage of you shooting the video with another camera then you edit it together with shots of the finished project. If you want to show before and after shots of an effect you just put the original footage on top and animate a mask or opacity to reveal the rendered effect below.
    If you can't figure out how to make a before and after then you will have a very difficult time doing any effects using AE because there is absolutely nothing in this before and after but very basic editing and masking.
