I don't find any advice from a user named philo in this thread. The

first
post you made that appears in my newsreader software is a complaint.

I have advice from other users to run FIXMBR. I have users indicating

I
may need to adjust boot.ini and some advice on how to examine the

partition
table. I don't have any post explaining any procedure that would
automatically recreate or adjust boot.ini. Maybe you need to repost
something.


I did not post any complaints other than trying to figure out why you
just did not take the advice you were given and fix your MBR.
It is totally obvious you are not using s software RAID
and as I clearly stated ...if you cloned your "simple volume"
installation to a RAID it will be impossible to boot as boot.ini will
have no reference to the RAID signature


The original advice was to use FIXMBR. But that doesn't modify boot.ini
does it? I assumed I might have to play with BOOTCFG /Rebuild for that.

In any case I appreciate the advise.



This is the best link I could find
