RE: Win2003 install BSOD on IXS

In regards to the not booting unless the boot drive it FAT or FAT32, I 
think that statement is wrong. 

I have installed the IXS with both Windows 2000 Server and Windows 2003 
Server and each time the primary drive was NTFS. 

I'm thinking you might need to start with a regular Windows 2003 CD 
instead of the SBS load. 

Just a thought :-)

Ouch! I consider that a major drawback, and would probably fail a server
if I was doing a security audit on it. A well secured server has NTFS on
the boot drive and most services running as non-privileged users so
there's no way to corrupt/infect the boot disk. Hard to mess up xxx.dll
when you don't have write access to it. <G>
