Yes, though it isn't so great it has happened to people in the past that
they made a backup, did a full brain wipe came to the restore stage and the
restore wouldn't work, not what they had in mind........
Though this happened only in rare instances and mostly to people that had
corrupted data already one doesn't always know that you have corrupted date
so it considered good practice to make two backups, after all, a lot to gain
and little to loose ;-)
