Automated System Recovery

[A.M]

Hi,

I underestand Automated System Recovery is a replacement for ERD ( am I
correct?)
The problem that i have with ASR is it created massive backup file (more
than one gig). Am i missing something?
Can't I just create a 4 disket repare disk contains boot sectors ? Then I
can backup my data fles later on.

Thanks,
Ali

The idea of the ASR is to keep the backup on the HDD and to access it
via Windows Setup and with the ASR disk if Windows can no longer
start.
