From PM Help: Windows NT must boot from a primary partition on the first drive. However, only a few NT files must reside on that partition; the remaining files can reside on a logical partition, which can be located on the first or a subsequent drive. The NT boot partition can be shared with another operating system. Additionally, NT must be installed on a FAT partition. During the installation, you can convert the partition to NTFS. Windows NT must boot from a primary partition on the first drive However, only a few NT files must reside on that partition I didn't get the impression that you had to do this to get your G: to boot. Additionally, NT must be installed on a FAT partition. During the installation, you can convert the partition to NTFS. Now this sounds significant. I just copied C: as was, which was NTFS. So my J: was created as NTFS without the FAT intermediary. Does this sound important to you?
