Restoring from a system-specific recovery image
Use this task to restore a K2 Solo 3G system using an image made from that particular K2 Solo 3G
system. If restoring from a generic factory default image, use the appropriate task.
Before restoring from a recovery image, make sure that the K2 Solo 3G system has access to the
image from which you are restoring. This task provides instructions for accessing an image on the
Recovery Flash Drive. If you access an image from a different location, such as a network connected
drive or another connected USB drive, alter the steps in this task as appropriate.
1. Make sure that media access is stopped and that the system on which you are working is not
being used.
2. If you have not already done so, connect keyboard, monitor, and mouse.
3. Do the following:
a) Insert the Recovery Flash Drive into a USB port.
b) Restart the machine, or power on if currently shut down.
The machine boots from the Recovery Flash Drive, into a version of Windows stored on the
drive.
A MS-DOS command window opens.
c) When prompted with a list of options, type
2
to select the Acronis option and then press
Enter
.
The Acronis program loads.
