I would seldom do this, and because of that, like everything else it
is more simple said than done...

Can anyone comment on the easiest way to make a copy of my c:\win2000
boot directory to d:\win2000 in order to change the boot.ini and do
some testing while booting to d:\win2000.

Of course, when using XCOPY with all the appropriate switches
(including /C to ignore errors) it gives "sharing violations" while
running NT.

I noticed that the recovery console does not offer an XCOPY
equivalent...

This may be an OLD question, but what is the best and most simple way
to make a copy of the directory to the d:\ drive?

Any comment is appreciated...

- What exactly do you mean with "boot directory"?
- What is the purpose of the exercise?
- Where is Windows installed on your PC? It's usually C:\WinNT.


"boot directory" is where I keep my "cobra booty" and "camel humps".
The "purpose" of this activity is to make a cobra / camel hybrid.
I have a Window's harem bunker with my WMD's for safe keeping.
LOL.
