  • Description of the issue (ideally so that others can reproduce it):

  • Workaround, if any:
    Post backup when i tried to perform the recovery option on the same machine and I am getting error like you need to load the kernel first . Attached the screenshot. same iso image working fine and restored properly on VM.

  • Attachments, as applicable ("rear -D mkrescue/mkbackup/recover" debug log files): mkbackup
