Erunt question

[Guest]

Suppose both partition A and B had Wxp and saved registries using ERUNT.

Suppose partition A no longer boots but I can still boot partition B. After
booting partition B, I look into partition A and find ERDNT(that is where
ERUNT saved the partition A registry previously) and then do a restore .

Would I be restoring the A or B partition registry?

Would the restored registry be put into A or B?

In other words, if you previously boot A and had saved the regisrtry on A
using ERUNT, what happens if you latter boot a different partition then look
into partition A for the ERDNT folder then do a restore registry.

You would be restoring A. This is from the ERDNT Readme file (read it
for more info) that seems to fit your situation:


Restoring the registry with ERDNT - Emergency Scenario I
--------------------------------------------------------

Situation: Windows fails to boot up in normal and safe mode, but you
have a DOS boot disk or another (working) operating system installed
on your PC which is supported by the ERDNT restoration program, and
from which you have full access to the drive(s) containing the corrupt
Windows installation and the registry backup.

Boot up to the working OS, and open the folder containing the registry
backup you want to restore.

If the drive letters are different to as they were in the Windows
where you created the registry backup, you need to edit the ERDNT.INF
file now to reflect the new drive letters, before trying to restore
the registry backup. For example, if the drive with the corrupt
Windows installation is now available as D: instead of C:, then you
would change all C:\... references in the INF file to D:\... . Editing
the file can be done in Windows with the Notepad program, and in DOS
with the EDIT command.

Now run the ERDNT.EXE file to start the restoration program. Select
which registry components to restore (just the system registry will do
in most cases), then start restoration. When the process is complete,
reboot the computer and check if the other Windows installation is
repaired now.


Luck!
