This happened to me too! With Version 9.2. After installing it, I could not
boot my NT 4.0 sp6a server without a blue screen of death reporting a
Inaccessible boot device if I recall correctly.
I had recently installed the same software on 3 of our other servers with
the same configuration without any problems. Luckily the problems occurred
on one of our dev servers. It was a pain to fix. It seemed to do damage to
the master boot record.
What did symantec say was the problem?
