I'm trying to deploy Win XPE on new hard drive. I have build and tested
the image on developement machine on which I boot XPE from second
partition. Then I change all setting to C: drive, ARC path and
rebuild the image.
I have connected new drive to the machine, initialize it, create partition,
format it using NTFS and mark it as active. Then I disconnected my
first drive, change boot sequence and try to boot from new drive.
But I can't. The system even doesn't display any message.
So how should I prepare my fresh hard drive to boot. Does it need
special MBR and how to create it. To my knowledge NTFS when I
initialize new drive under XP it creates MBR which try to find first
active partition and then loads bootsector from it. Volumes formate
as NTFS has boot sector at start. So it looks like I should not do
anything else. But it doesn't work.
Could you give me advice what should I do.
