Acronis True Image files required not available

Asked By Donal Bambie 0 points N/A Posted on - 09/01/2012

This is the error I always get whenever I try to run the recovery manager, it is asking me to insert the bootable disk, where do I get it?

Acronis True Image Home

The files required for activating Acronis Startup Recovery Manager are not available.

Please insert the bootable CD or try to run Acronis True Image Home from Windows.

Acronis True Image files required not available

Hello,

You have to create a bootable disk for this purpose, try these steps:

 

Create the Acronis bootable cd as an iso image (you can also burn it to a cd). Please use "full" bootable instead of  "safe" bootable cd.

 

From the iso image extract files from the "Folder" of recovery manager and save them any where.

 

Now extract the ubcd files from the iso image 

 

Copy the acronis files into the "ubcdcustom directory " 

 

then edit "custom.cfg" like this: 

 

LABEL acronis

MENU LABEL Acronis True Image 10 Full 

KERNEL /custom/acronis/kernel.dat 

APPEND initrd=/custom/acronis/ramdisk.dat /S quiet vga=791 load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_size=32000 

 

Make the ubcd.iso as detailed elsewhere 

 

Burn it to complete the process!

 

Hope it helps!!

You're getting that error because of the following possible reasons:

• The Acronis Bootable Media that you are trying to install is on a removable flash drive or on a CD/DVD,
• or you are trying to boot the computer from the Acronis Bootable Media, and also trying to activate Acronis Startup Recovery Manager

To resolve that issue, try troubleshooting the issues above. If they do not help, you will need to get the latest version of the setup of Acronis True image from the following link: Installation of the Latest Update of an Acronis Product.

Download it and then use it for installation.

Regards,

Carl
