partitions on the Master Drive you are creating.
If so, follow the Master Drive BCD Vista
Preparation below.
Master Drive BCD Vista Preparation
Edit the BCD (Boot Configuration Data) file in the
following way:
1.
Boot the Master drive and log in as a user
with administrative rights.
2.
Click the Start icon (the Microsoft Orb)
and type
cmd.exe
at the search window.
The
cmd.exe
application will show up at
the top of the box. Right-click it and run it
as an administrator (or with elevated
rights). A DOS window will open.
3.
Now type the following commands in the
DOS Window:
Bcdedit /set {bootmgr} device boot <enter>
Bcdedit /set {default} device boot <enter>
Bcdedit /set {default} osdevice boot <enter>
Bcdedit /set {memdiag} device boot <enter>
Bcdedit /set {ntldr} device boot <enter>
(this line is only necessary for drives with XP/Vista
dual boot setup)
4. If typed correctly (with admin rights!), the
response will be successful in each case.
These commands change the BCD file in a
way that allows Vista to boot even if some of
the drive’s geometry has changed. It will not
cause a rollback, will not request the license
key again, or perform a SID change pass.
5. Now shut down the computer and disconnect
the Master drive. Your Master drive is now
ready for cloning.
