We just recently purchased a new DMG 635V with sinumerik cpu. Has anyone successfully backed up the hard drive?
Generally after the 1 year warranty of a brand new machine lapses, I take apart the hard drive from the cpu in order to make a backup for safekeeping. Our past machines were Mazaks and these were very straightforward to do since they were only running normal microsoft windows on 1 partition. Easily imaged via ghost on a windows computer.
However for the DMG 635V I notice upon bootup that it somewhat goes thru a linux bootstrap process before loading the software. Searching thru the internet, I also see references that it has multiple partitions (systems?).
My DMG 635V specs:
Siemens Ergoline control op019-532c
Sinumeric pcu50.3-c 1.5ghz 512mb 40gb
