Do not install a Linux partition. When you are running under Linux, Drive Vaccine is not loaded. This implies 3 things:
- Only the Baseline is visible to LINUX.
- Reboot Restore Rx: Professional is not running. Therefore, any changes made by LINUX to Drive 0 instantly corrupts the Baseline, as far as Reboot Restore Rx: Professional is concerned.
Your system will become unusable. You will have to restore the Disk from an external backup to recover.
