Is it possible to restore a backup made with Drive Image 7.01,with the
DOS rescue disk of Drive Image 2002 ?
The knowledgebase of Powerquest is very thin so I could not find an answer.

No. You must use the Drive Image 7.0 CD to boot the computer and do the
restore. That is compatible with ver 7.01.

I don't think so, because DI6 [2002] won't recognize the new file type
with DI7 [.v2i].

That would only work if you used DI2002 style backups. You need to use the
CD you burn from an ISO if you downloaded the prog or the CD you got when
you bought it off shelf to boot from in order to restore an image backup.
You also need at least 256megs ram to restore.
