I've downloaded the manual but....

Yes, that's what I did.

you should be able to fix that with PartitionMagic, no?

It asks if you want to create a boot CD when installed. To restore you
boot
from the CD.
Or after installation you can create a secure zone
which is a hidden partition you can backup to.
Press F11 at boot acronis will load and you can
do a restore. I've used the CDs to restore with no
problems. I've also used the secure zone, but
like having the backup on media separate from
the drive I'm backing up.
One thing I noticed is when you do a restore acronis
restores the partition to the original size unlike ghost
where if you backed up an 80GB drive and restored
to a 120GB drive it would adjust to use the available
free space.

Huh, didn't think of that. Have you been able to restore from the
CD-Rs
yet? I wonder if there's some info that needs to be written in order
for
that to work. I notice Acronis works within Windows. When you restore
do
you boot to DOS? Do you create a boot disk within Acronis TI? How
does
it
work. DriveImage allows you to create a pair of bootable diskettes
that
give you everything you need to make/restore images.
