Ghost 15 restore backup partitions in order

Is there a way to VERIFY that Ghost 15 (Windows 7) restore is going to restore ALL partitions onto a new blank drive in the same order that existed originally?  When you boot from the CD and then  "restore my computer" I want the oem partition (47MB), then Recovery partiton (10GB), then c: (rest of drive).

 

In a previous situation, after a restore, it wouldn't boot, and  I had to run a Windows boot cd repair function to fix everything up.  I'd like to avoid that in the future.

 

Or do I have to perform 3 separate restores (one for each partition)?  I just want to be able to confirm which restore partition order Ghost is going to perform BEFORE actually doing it.

 

I want a function called "Restore My Computer from the backup image just like it was".

Dave,

Thanks for the helpful explanation.  I don't recall any Norton documentation on the proper use of the "add" and "edit" functions so I have never used them.  Your approach seems good.

 

A future suggestion for Symantec might be a "preview" screen by Norton or SSR to show you what is going to happen before you click on the final comit.  I think the average user just assumes when you want to restore the backup image to a new blank hard drive, you shouldn't have to understand or worry about this nuance.

 

Thanks again,

John

That "edit" button is the preview screen.

See this post by Red, it has screenshots showing the process with 2 partitions, the SRP and windows 7.

You just need to do an extra step for the recovery partition.

I'm almost positive this bug has been fixed in SSR 2013.
