More questions on the missing hal.dll

[Anat]

All,
I've been following the discussion with Johannes Stratmann closely,
especially the part where reformatting the HD did help, well, it did not
make a difference with my setting and I still facing the infamous
"missing hal.dll".

Settings are:
SATA HD 80 GB with two partitions C: and D:
On C: Running XP Pro, no problem, running beautifully.
boot.ini -->
[boot loader]
timeout = 30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating system]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional"/noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Embedded"/noexecute=optin /fastdetect

On D: Running XP Embedded, where the image was created with Target D.

I'm out of ideas, so if anyone has any suggestion, I'll be happy to give
it a try.

Regards, Anat

Dual booting is always troubling.

When you built the image what did you set the ARC path and drive letter too?

Sean,
Thanks for the prompt response.
Regarding your suggestions - I did set up ARC and drive letters when I
built the image, so those were not the issues.
Since my posting I was trying to rule out Hardware problems and found
out that the SATA HD I was using is faulty. It single boots fine, but
when it comes to dual booting- nope. On a different HD the problem went
away.
