Support of boot from CD/DVD in Acronis OS Selector
If you insert a bootable CD/DVD, it will be detected and displayed in the Acronis OS
Selector boot menu/main window along with available operating systems. The
CD/DVD can contain any operating system or bootable program – no matter, you will
see its icon in the boot menu. It allows you to boot or install an operating system
from a CD.

OS Detection Wizard
The OS detection tool allows an unintentionally deleted operating system to be found
and added to the OS Selector boot menu. Also, if an operating system on a newly
connected disk was not detected automatically, you can try to add it to boot menu
using this tool.

Boot from second HDD
Generally, Windows can boot from HDD only if its boot files reside on the first
(according to BIOS) hard disk. If you connect a live system HDD, taken from another
computer (where it was the first disk), to your computer, where it becomes the
second (third etc.) disk, boot from that HDD will be impossible, even if the hardware
is identical on both computers. Acronis OS Selector now can manage situations like
that and automatically set the disk order required for booting the selected operating
system.
Besides, you can choose the disk order when installing an additional Windows
operating system, so that its boot files will be installed on the second (third etc.)
disk.

Viewing logs
Acronis Disk Director Suite now keeps working logs. They store information about
implemented partition operations, including reasons for failure, if any.

bootable programs versions on PXE server.
