I have no doubt that I've probably installed all of these
hotfixes. If it was offered in the Critical Updates it
was installed. I'll check out the procedure in KB324573
and apply it.
What I don't understand, however, is the fact that I'm
attempting to create a second discreet image that has
nothing to do with the original one I put on the server
when I first set up RIS. Is this just an internal quirk
that, hopefully, is fixed in W2K3 Server?
Thanks for your help.
