Abstract

A bootable restoration computer includes: at least one mass storage device; at least two mass storage device partitions in the at least one mass storage device, including first and second partitions; a partition image restoration program; at least one partition image; at least one human interface device; a primary operating system with graphical user interface; a secondary operating system; and, a boot loader responsive to the human interface device that provides for selecting between the primary secondary operating systems. The primary operating system resides on the first partition and is configured so that its standard locations for storing user-created files are folders rooted on at least one of any partition other than the first partition. The at least one partition image is an image of the first partition, and resides on at least one of any partition other than the first partition. If no opportunity is taken to select the secondary operating system in a predefined time, the computer loads the primary operating system. If the opportunity is taken, the partition image restoration program restores the partition image to the first partition.
