Hive based registry problem...

Hi all,

I want to implement a hive-based registery model in my pxa255 board.
So, i have done the following by referring to the platform builder
documentations.

1) Added the catalog item, Hive based registery
2) Modified my platform.reg file as shown below,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
; HIVE BOOT SECTION
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init\BootVars]

"SYSTEMHIVE"="System.hv"
"Start DevMgr"=dword:1
"DefaultUser"="Ramesh"

-------> I included my storage Manager driver registery details too here(I
am using stratad...and my storage Manager is working properly and i am able
to see the partition named "Flash"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\StrataFMD]
"Flags"=dword:1000 ; For the driver to loade at first boot phase

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\MSFlash\FATFS]
"MountFlags"=dword:2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think, i have included all the details properly in my platform.reg. I
done my sysgen properly(i could see default.hv, boot.hv etc in my release
directory), Now, when my board boots, i get the following debug messages,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried giving the "NoDefualtUser" parameter in my platform.reg,
irrespective of what ever i change in my platform.reg and rebuild it(I
rebuilded properly, i can see my changes in reginit.ini), i am getting the
same error... Unable to read the "NoDefaultUser", although this is not
serious error compared to the subsequent one, i want to know whether my
changes are getting reflected at runtime...

What mistake am i doing here and how do i store my hive based registry in my
flash?

Please help me up in solving this issue...

Thanks in advance.
