For one thing, I'd like
to take Recovery Console out of the picture, and not by

If any of the MVPs told me how to do that, I missed it.


It was at the end of my other post to you:

"To remove the recovery console, delete the cmdcons folder from the root
(usually C and edit the boot.ini file to remove the reference to it."

You can also delete the cmldr file that is added by the recovery console
installation - also in the root folder.

William, the term image is used interchangeably for a cloned hard drive and
for an image set that is restored using the imaging software. Usually which
type of image is being discussed is noted very early in a discussion so
that both parties are on the same page. This is why I made the effort to
define the distinction at the beginning of my previous message.

Vanguard picked up on what I was trying to say and did a great job
expanding on the two different meanings. Thanks, Vanguard!

Oh, you are at least 105% correct, Sharon. On all counts. And I
did see your note and saved the message but didn't follow up right
away (or yet) because I wasn't sure I could find all the items.
I'm in a ticklish position: I willingly perform any operations
on the clones while keeping the Master off the system, out of
harm's way, but I'm reluctant to do anything to the Master which
might cause me to have *no* working system. My question, obviously,
is, if I do what you show in quotes above, am I taking any chance at all
that I'm endangering my Master system?
