Its probably ntfs? hm, mounting the disk partition should faill if it is ntfs.. if not it will be destroyed when injecting the ntldr boot code, Moreover: if it is a ntfs-formatted partition this should be considered a bug. nt5x-install needs a fat32 formatted partition.

Yep, if, and only if it is a fat32 partiotion ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
