Recreating the C: drive will definitely destroy your Oracle registry
entries and your Oracle and listener services.  Doing an in-place upgrade
should not and will also give you a more stable server.  Ghosting is much
easier but it can produce an unstable machine that will intermittently
suffer a GPF for no apparent reason.  I can understand why a company
bringing in 500 new machines will resort to ghosting but to do it for just
a single machine ... I can't justify that in my own mind.

Have them do the NT to 2K upgrade rather than recreate the C: partition.

We have an 8.1.7 SE database on a server which is currently NT4 SP6.  The
System Admin group wish to upgrade the server to W2K and propose doing so
by
recreating the C: partitition.  Our Oracle software resides on E: (same
physical disk) and database files on other disks/partitions.  Are there 
any
implications for the Oracle software and database for this upgrade.  Are
there any steps I need to take pre or post OS upgrade?.  In particular I'm
wondering about implications for the registry.
Any advice/help would be appreciated.
