For windows 2000 Server, the correct commands to modify the attributes for boot.ini are: attrib -h -s c:\boot.ini and attrib +s +h c:\boot.ini I'm not sure if the order of the arguments is important, but that's the order I used. Otherwise the procedure works great for dual booting FreeBSD 4.6-RELEASE and Windows 2000 Server. The only attributes set are H and S. The file is not marked readonly. -- Scott >How-To-Repeat: 1) Install Windows 2000 Server 2) log in as Administrator 3) Start Command Prompt window 4) Enter command 'attrib -s -r c:\boot.ini' The command fails. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
