Disk Prep

Remove efi partiton

Format Backup Disk

SKIP I figured out the problem with using a previous image backup disk - see below. I didn't reformat.

When I tried to use existing NTFS image backup drive, I got an access denied error. I couldn't trace it down so I decided to reformat the backup drive.

Chose exFAT so it will work well across platforms

Steps

  • Windows key + X
  • Right-click the E: drive partition
  • Selected exFAT format
  • Ok
  • I think I got an in use error and realized that it was cause by exploring the disk earlier. I abort and rebooted.
  • How to Format


Steps
