Recovery modules from the service partition of a new ThinkPad or ThinkCentre
computers. Instead, use the Web downloadable version or the retail version.
This version of the ImageUltra Builder program does not support importing the
modules associated with the ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery product that
comes preinstalled on select Lenovo-branded personal computers. You must create
your own modules using either the Web-downloadable version (for use with
Lenovo-branded computers only) or the retail version (for use with Lenovo
branded computers and other computer brands) of the ThinkVantage Rescue and
Recovery product. The Web-downloadable version is available from the Lenovo
Web site at:
Notes:
1.
If you intend to create an image that includes either the Web-downloadable
version or retail version of the ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery product,
you must define a custom service partition size that leaves a fixed buffer of at
least 500 MB through the Partitions tab of the Base Map settings.
2.
By default, the Web-downloadable version and retail version of the
ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery product does not create a physical service
partition as part of its installation process; instead it creates a virtual service
partition on the C drive.
However, when installed under the control of the ImageUltra Builder program,
these versions of the ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery product detect the
presence of the physical service partition created by the ImageUltra Builder
program, and install themselves in the physical service partition. If you install
the ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery product as part of a Smart Image, do
not use the Delete all setting in the Image Cleanup tab of your base map.
3.
The ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery product can not be preinstalled on the
donor system before creating a portable Sysprep image. It must be installed as
a separate application module.
4.
If the base map uses the service partition in the back:
v
Rescue and Recovery for Windows XP will use the service partition.
v
Rescue and Recovery for Windows Vista or Windows 7 will use the virtual
partition.
