Yep, this is exactly what I did from my Windows 2008 SP2 machine from
the D:\ drive of a old NT 4.0 machine. 

I had to use the attrib -s -H c:\foldername to make the folder
accessible via the GUI. 

Thanks for the feedback I will keep that under the hat for future
migrations, since we are going to Windows 2008 a lot more these days.

Subject: Re: Weird One, Can't see folder, WIndows 2008 after a robocopy

I see it most frequently when robocopy-ing the root of one drive into a
subfolder of another, ie

robocopy /s /e d:\ c:\subfolder

In the most recent case (a Windows 7 machines), specifiying "/COPY:DT"
didn't make a difference.
