416 416  1. Now we have to download and install the Bacula File Daemon. It makes sense to use the same version of the Bacula FD that was used to create the Backup. For a 64-bit PE-disk we use the 64-bit version of Bacula. We use an installation path that for sure does not exist in the image to be restored (e.g. `C:\BaculaJustForRestore`). If we used the default path, we would get a collission with the Bacula files that are part of the restore. We remove the checkmarks on the "Install as service" and "Start after install" options because we will take care of starting Bacula manually once we have adjusted the configuration.
417 417  1. After the installation has finished, we open the `bacula-fd.conf` file and make sure that the configuration is correct: Basically, we want the same settings here that we had on the original system. In particular, the client name, director name and password should match. We also have to make sure that the paths for the working and PID directories point to the correct (non-standard) directory.
418 418  1. Finally, we have to ensure that the IP address of the system is set correctly. If the IP address does not match the address in the Bacula director configuration, we can either change the director configuration or manually configure the IP address of the system.
419 -1. Now we start the Bacula FD by opening a command prompt, changing to the installation directory and running `bacula-fd.exe` with the right command-line parameters. Example:`c:
420 -cd BaculaJustForRestore
421 -bacula-fd /run -c C:\BaculaJustForRestore\bacula-fd.conf`

422 422  1. Now we are ready to start the restore in the Bacula console. We have to select the whole C: drive (but no other drives - we can restore them later). In the restore options we set an empty prefix ("/") for the target location ("Where:"), so that the files are restored to their original location on the C: drive.
423 423  1. When the restore has completed, we shut the computer down and remove the PE-disk. That’s it. The next time we boot the computer the restored system should boot. After that, we can delete the temporary Bacula installation and restore the files on other disks (if there are any).
