Re: [Xen-users] P2V with Windows 7 fails to boot disk.

[Flako <subforos@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Greg:
ms-sys works well for windows7?
The cdrescure windows7 option 'repair boot' (does something like
ms-sys) does not repair the problem.
Before you try what you recommend, I decided to start the whole
process again (create disk.raw / restore image) and it worked.
This time it was not exactly the same test as before (made some
changes) so there is that makes it work or not work. (create a 110G
disk where the partition is 100GB and use driver file for the entire
process)

Although I now work, I kept thinking about what you said (things I was
going to try)

1.) I lose the semantic reading it, I understand that you say that the
device must have a partition 1MiB?
I do not understand the original windows 7 has 2 partitions, one 100GB
and the other 400GB.
2) I was going to try just in case, although the windows rescure not
managed the problem.
3) I understand that you indicate that you copy the MBR from the
physical to the virtual machine with command 'dd if=/dev/sda of=mbr
count=1 bs=512', but this does not need a virtual disk in the same the
physical size?

Thank you.
