To restore your system disk from the internal USB, press [2] and
then [Enter] on your keyboard.
Afterwards a list of possible target devices will be detailed on the

special systems it may also be ’sdb’, ’sdc’, etc.
The system will ask you to enter the system device:

type in
sda
(in other cases
sdb
or
sdc
) and press [Enter] on your
keyboard.
A further list of possible source images will be detailed on the screen.
If there is only the R&S DVS recovery image on the USB flash drive, this
one will be listed. If there are several images, all will be displayed.
If you do not perform any action,
DVS Rescue
will be loaded automat-
ically after 30 seconds.
Ex factory the R&S DVS system will be delivered with ’sda’ as the default
system disk. If other configurations have been made later or on custom-
er request, this may be different.
Overwriting all data
A recovery will overwrite all your data.
Continue with the following steps only, when you are able
to identify the correct target device.
