I have a stack of IBM servers and one of them with Win 2008 R2. I imaged the server and deployed the image to the others. The pushed images all come up with the winload.exe error. I can reboot any of them to 2008 R2 DVD, goto command prompt and run the following to fix the problem: bcdedit /set {default} device partition=c: bcdedit /set {default} osdevice partition=c: bcdedit /set {bootmgr} device partition=c: I want to do this remotely without interaction. What I tried: just prior to rebooting to recapture an image I ran the above commands. That didn't work and it gave the same winload.exe error. built a floppy that has BCDEDIT.exe on it. I booted to the floppy but BCDEDIT.exe cannot be run in DOS mode. I would like to know: 1.) What do I need to do to Win 2008 R2 prior to imaging it so that the image can be deployed to other drives/chassis? 2.) Is there a boot floppy that will modify NTFS to correct the BCD to recognize the new drive? Thanks.
