Question about excluding one partition when restoring

[pilonbrad]

We are using Zenworks 4.01 ir7 bootcd and the Zen Partition from the bootcd.

Here's my img dump, using show geometry:


Number Device Name Partition Type Size in MB
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
1 /dev/hda2 *NTFS (Windows XP) 23046
2 /dev/hda3 NTFS 60000
3 empty
4 empty
5 empty

What we do is create a /images folder once the Zen Partition is installed. normally most of our computers only have a C: Drive (Windows XP operating system) so in order to make an image locally we use the command img ml /images/local.zmg comp=9 and to restore from the Zen Partition we would run img rl /images/local.zmg.

However we have a few video editor computers we just got in where on the single hard drive we have a C: drive for the Windows XP operting system and we have a D: drive where students can store their videos.

We want to be able to save a local image on the Zen Partition excluding the D: drive which is Number 2 /dev/hda3 because the local image would be too large.

[/B] 1) Would we then use the command at the bash# img ml /images/local.zmg x2 comp=9?[/B]

2) Also, say a month from now we have to restore the local image from the Zen Partition on the video editor, but we don't want to lose D: drive information (Number 2 from img dump /dev/hda3) we just want to restore C: drive (Number 1 from img dump /dev/hda2) because if we just use img rl /images/local.zmg it will wipe out all existing partitions and we don't want to lose the D: drive. How do we go about using the img rl /images/local.zmg command so we don't lose D: Drive (Number 2 from img dump /dev/hda3), both C: drive and D: drive are on the same hard drive, they are just partitioned?

Thanks!
