Scenario...
Virtual XP Pro box on my ESX 3.5 cluster has had computer account
deleted by a junior admin, whose arse I have already kicked. No
problem, pull it our of the domain and re add, right. Yeah, well the
local administrator password is not listed in my documentation. (My
fault; did not do it at time of P2V b\c this dude was getting fired and
I was in pucker mode trying to lock out a high end developer out of
everything rather quickly.../end rant)
Soooo..I can't log in. Ok, boot machine to my ultimate boot cd and
local admin password reset utility. But, utility can't find the SAM b\c
it can't read the vmware virtual scsi drive. OK, mount the floppy image
with the VMWare XP Pro driver for the scsi disk. No go; utilty is
looking for a specific directory (/floppy/scsi). Tried creating /scsi
directory on floppy image and coping driver into same, no go.
Been piddling with this for a while and I can't get the driver loaded.
Any pointers/ideas before I throw my mouse into the wall?
TIA,
Shook
