My target device is a Kontron EPIC CE using a Celron CPU running at 733MHz
with 512MB RAM.
A hard disk drive connected to the EIDE Primary Master.
Has a Compact Flash Type 1 as EIDE Secondary Master,6 USB Ports.

What I did was to use Partition Magic to resize my HD, already has a XP Pro
install
Then I used Disk Manager to create and format a new Primary Partition and
shared it.
Next I copied all the files from the XPe image folder on my development
platform to the Partition created above.
I then edited the boot.ini file to multi-boot the target devcie.
To make a long story short, I boot to the XPe image, FBA runs, I believe
successfully.
My problem is, that when I logon to XPe, it dumps me to the command shell
at: c:\windows\system32.
Why is this?
Do I need to do something else?
I searched through the MSDN and it wasn't much help.
