shouldnt the 2nd step already be done when I restore the .iso of the drive? (thus 1.) backup 2.) drive iso restore, 3.) boot restore)Thomas– Thomas2015-12-31 17:32:06 +00:00Commented Dec 31, 2015 at 17:32

Yes. But i would definetely try to zero those 512 bytes just to be sure it's all nice and clean - that way you are 100% sure what is going on there and it will be easier to nail down the issue if it still doesn't work for some mean reason.monsune– monsune2015-12-31 17:37:46 +00:00Commented Dec 31, 2015 at 17:37

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
