Well, that finally worked for me, I think. I actually had it boot one time.
Thanks for getting me past that hurdle.
Now, after the one boot, I added a component, the Windows XP Explorer User
Interface macro if memory serves, and things have gone hay-wire.
Now, during FBA I get one of two things. Right at the start of FBA I get
either an "isass.exe system error - security accounts manager initialization
failed because a device attached to the system is not functioning." Or I
get an FBA message that states Resetting Setup Flag. This message box seems
to stay longer than it should (couple of seconds) before the machine
reboots.
In both cases, if I try to boot back into the XPe partition, I get a blue
screen. Both issues produce the same FBALOG.txt (attached)
I have rebuilt the image from scratch to the point of it's one good boot (no
new components). But still these two issues remain.
Thanks again,
Dave

Dave,
Slobodan is right and you may not want to trust your XP Pro machine drive
order to be the same in your XPe build.
Most likely, you do not have the CD Drive support in your XPe image and
that's why FBA is looking for D:\WINDOWS not E:.
Try changing Target Device Settings to use
D:\WINDOWS
D:\Program Files
D:\Documents and Settings
Or use Slobodan's approach to change runtime partion info.
Btw, you seemed to mention that your boot drive set to E: in the Target
Device Settings?
I believe (if you run XP Pro from C: and don't have a custom boot
loader)
it
should be set to C:.
Hope this help,
KM
not
E:
and this is where I am now stumped. Why does FBA expect WinDir to be D:?
Again, Thanks to all.
Dave
Dave,
Your FBALog.txt indicated you set incorrect windows directory in TD.
Just to confirn, go to your project TD settings and check the folder
settings under "Target Device Settings".
Since you are attempting to load XPe from a second drive, most
likely
your
settings should look like:
Windows folder="D:\Windows"
Program files folder="D:\Program Files"
Documents and Settings folder="D:\Documents and Settings"
Not sure about your second drive directory structure but it seems
you
are
using D:\xptest\Windows dir, right?
If so, either include \xptest\ to your windows folder path or move the
Windows\ under the root.
KM
Sorry,
I meant to include this with the last post but now attached is the FBA
log.
Dave
Dave,
Attach the FBA log file located (on the target) at
c:\windows\fba\fbalog.txt
to this thread. That will give us some more insight.
HTH,

Sounds like the target device ran out of memory and trying to
access
virtual
memory which has not been enabled. You need to add page file
support.
By
default there is no pagefile in an XP Embedded runtime. You can
add
support
for this by checking the configurable settings in your HAL
component.
