imaging 2003 SCIS drive to drive

[rayray]

Can anyone tell me a freeware app that images scsi drives, win 2003 server. I slaved the new drive and put on image on it with snapshot. It will not boot up? do I need to munt it somehow - or make it bootable? I tried to put the MBR back on it w/ no sucess.

Windows knows which drive and controller in the SCSI chain it was installed to, and unless you "remove" that information with sysprep before you image an installation, you'll have to go and edit the boot.ini file to point to the new location. There's no guarantee the latter will work, although it should - the proper way to move a Windows install (if things aren't staying *exactly* the same between the two machines during the move) is to use sysprep to prep the system to be moved.
