Hi Slobodan,
I have tried more times to boot the system in different scenario:
1) Only one disk without any partition;
2) One disk with only one partition as large as FBA setup;
3) One disk with two partitions different in size;
4) Two disk with one or more partitions for each.
The results are:
1) The system works fine and I may run the DISKPART to init the disk;
2) The system works fine without problems;
3) The User PnP reports an error while enumerating new hardware, and the
partitions aren't visible;
4) The system works fine without problems.
I have repeated the tests in another system with the same hardware setup but
different HD type and partitions.
The results are strange:
1), 2), 3) The User PnP reports an error while enumerating new hardware, and
the partitions aren't visible;
4) The system works fine without problems.
The Setupapi.log reports only the same error like this:
[..........]

or like this if the disk has two partitions (this trace is present more
times in the log file):

What is happened? I need a small XPe system to restore the HDs in my
embedded systems, but the configurations of them are not the same for all!
How I may solve this problem? Thanks a lot,
Paolo
