Right. There might be files already the image restoration done in an earlier 
step.


Would s.th. like this work:

1: Restore an half year old image, using dd (for partition table and MBR's 
sake)
2; Mount it 
3: "rm -rf" it
4: Copy the backup

Or would this kill the windows installation at some point?
