I assume your earlier message about the uneventful schema extension
was for this domain, and for this purpose?

3b. (just to be pedantic) Shut down ML-DC01 and remove account from domain

I'm not sure of the issues surrounding the empty root, but otherwise
this should work just fine.

Also, why 2008 and not 2008 R2?
