It might be simpler to just maintain the pilot.com domain as an empty forest root (not an uncommon approach). The forest root domain contains the enterprise administrators and schema administrators groups. These are forest wide groups and cannot be moved from the root domain.

Most of the accounts i need are in the pilot domain, so what i did was to use the admt tool to move all the user and computer information i need from the pilot.com domain to the test.com domain. That being completed, i want to demote the pilot.com domain and make the test.com domain the root domain controoler, i tried achieveing that through dcpromo, but i keep getting an error saying that the pilot.com domain still has a leaf domain below it. How can i demote the pilot.com domain and make the test.com domain the root domain controller. Thanks all.
