EWF Problem.

[Andrew Toner]

I'm having a problem with EWF which is driving me nuts.

I have a machine that has 2 partitions. Partition 1 is my XP Pro install
and i'm using Parition 2 for my XPe build.

I'm trying to put an EWF overlay on the XPe boot partition (partition 2) and
i keep getting the following errors during FBA...

16:11:16 PM - ConfigureEwf() Start.
16:11:16 PM - Getting EWF config parameters from registry.
16:11:16 PM - Non El Torito disk configuration.
16:11:16 PM - EWF Partition Size = 0 (KBytes), Levels = 1, Volumes = 1.

16:11:17 PM - ewfOpen returned invalid file handle.
16:11:17 PM - Deleting EWF Partition #3, disk#=0, type=69
16:11:17 PM - ConfigureEwf() End, status = 0x2.

I've got the Software PnP enumerator in the build and the OptimalLayout
registry key. What else am i missing?

All ideas welcome.

Cheers

Hi Andrew,


The error is mostly due to the failure in deletion an old EWF
partition.
Y dont u try etprep in deletion of the ewf partition before you do the
transferring of image to the flash.Are you sure the driver is
correctly formatted ?
