I'm prob not the qualified on this thread as I've not recovered a box
post sp1 ...If you are on SP1.... and you are using non SP1 media... you
are going to have fun. That might be what you are seeing.
I know in our backup/restore documents post SP1 you must apply the SP1
first before doing the rest of the recovery process.
I think the info is in here:

Yuck.
I thought so. Dell? Lemme go google on the KB that talks about how they have
a funky method to get into that recovery console.

Small Business Server 2003 installation starts automatically when you try to
start the Recovery Console from the Dell OEM version of
the Small Business Server 2003 CD:

Also are you SP1 or pre SP1?
Oh and how good are your backups just in case?

HI all,
I have a major issue with a SBS 2k3 server. It hang this morning and after a hard reset i get the message:
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
Winnt_root\System32\Ntoskrnl.exe
Please re-install a copy of the above file.
I tried acessing recovery mode and set it back but i cant access any
files...i even tried to set the boot.ini file back...doesnt work either: access denied......
In recovery mode i can see the files by the dir command but cant change anything.
Tried registry repair utility: same message access denied
At last i tried a parallel install prior to rebuilding the operating
system...but after selecting a new folder on the harddrive for that installation it stops when examining harddrive (25 %).
Its a raid 1 (mirror) array....all i can think off now is that there is
something wrong with the partitions / array.
Pls help.
Thx Jorre
