    ANG0.txt has the following at the end:
    find --set-root --ignore-floppies /boot/grub/core.img
    kernel /boot/grub/core.img
    boot
    # All your boot are belong to NeoSmart!
    find --set-root --ignore-floppies /grub/core.img
    kernel /grub/core.img
    boot
    # All your boot are belong to NeoSmart!
    find --set-root --ignore-floppies /boot/grub2/core.img
    kernel /boot/grub2/core.img
    boot
    # All your boot are belong to NeoSmart!
    find --set-root --ignore-floppies /grub2/core.img
    kernel /grub2/core.img
    boot
    # All your boot are belong to NeoSmart!
    ===============
    It scans all drives (except floppies) for /boot/grub/core.img. If found then boot from that partition.
    Not found... then it tries /grub/core.img
    then /boot/grub2/core.img then /grub2/core.img

    Because you restored the linux partition and it worked prior to restore.. file should still be there. Adding linux again to win7 bootmanager using easybcd.... linux still doesn't boot. Problem is most likely in linux itself

    In the linux rescue prompt that you get type:
    Code:
     
    find --set-root --ignore-floppies /boot/grub/core.img
    find --set-root --ignore-floppies /grub/core.img
    find --set-root --ignore-floppies /boot/grub2/core.img
    find --set-root --ignore-floppies /grub2/core.img
    Does it find something?

    Mmm. OK. I guess Linux just doesn't behave "nicely" when restored from a Macrium image.....that really all I wanted to determine. I thought it wouldn't have a problem, but.........

    Unless I'm imaging incorrectly or restoring the image incorrectly, but I don't see how. Oh well.

    EDIT: trying your suggestion now..........

    At the grub rescue> prompt

    Code:
    find --set-root --ignore-floppies /boot/grub/core.img
    Unknown command 'find'

    In grub rescue:
    Code:
     
    ls (hd0,0)/
    ls (hd0,1)/
    ls (hd0,2)/
    and more
    What is your linux partition?
    Even try

    Code:
     
    ls (hd0,msdos7)/
    Even try msdos6, msdos8 or msdos1

    From grub rescue> ls

    (hd0) (hd0,msdos1) (hd1) (hd1,msdos7) (hd1,msdos6) (hd1,msdos5) (hd1,msdos2) (hd1,msdos1)

    in linux rescue:
    Code:
    ls
    you most likely see (hd0) and (fd0). But what else?

    Code:
     
    ls (hd0,msdos7)/
    ls (hd0,msdos7)/boot
    Is that your linux partition?

    OK. I tried several combinations of ls (hd0,msdos1)/ etc., each one returned unknown filesystem until I did this:

    Code:
    ls (hd1,msdos2)/
    Code:
    ./ ../ lost+found. etc/ media/ bin /boot/ dev /home /lib /lib64 /mnt /opt/ proc/ root/ run/ sbin/ selinux/ srv/ sys/ tmp/ usr/ var/ vmlinuz initrd.img
    Thus, (hd1, msdos2) is the Linux partition, correct?

    I meant hd0 instead of hd1!! Was typo
