trouble installing debug bootloader for debugging boot drivers



Hi,

This with WinDBG 6.8.0004.0 and WDK 6001.17051, target is Server 2003 sp2.

I'm attempting to follow the instructions in the WinDBG help in "Mapping Driver Files" for replacing boot drivers with the image replacement feature (kdfiles). The directions are a little thin, but I'm trying to do the gist of what they're saying by copying WinDDK's debug\i386\ntkrpamp.exe over \windows\system32\ntkrnlmp.exe. I've also tried also copying \debug\i386\halmacpi.dll over \windows\system32\HAL.DLL.

This results in a message: Windows could not start because of an error in the software. load needed DLLs for kernel.

What am I doing wrong? Can I use the 6001 debug bootloader on Server 2003?

(Additional wrinkles: Target is running in SMP PAE mode under Xen -- debugging non-boot drivers works fine.)

Thanks -- Regards -- Andy
