This little "feature" and a few others, cost me an all-nighter, Sunday noon
to Monday 8 am, at a customer.
Single server, 25 user network, ended up blowing it away and loading fresh,
after a pizza and a Guinness about 9 pm. <g> Will now always migrate to
another server, which I had done previously and since.
PS. this Basic versus Dynamic disk business didn't appear in any
documentation that I saw. Then there is this other issue about having free
space at the end of the drive to be able to convert to Dynamic.
