I plan on using the instructions in "Changing the Vista Boot Drive" but I have 4 questions first. I have 3 partitions on disk0 (Win7 production, Win7 test, and System Reserved). The bootmgr and associated files and folders were placed on System Reserved and I want to move them to Win7 production.
1. I presume that the command mbrfix.exe /drive 0 fixmbr /vista /yes would be changed to mbrfix.exe /drive 0 fixmbr /win7 /yes.
2. after I do the sequence of commands will my boot settings still have 2 entries as it does now or just the entry for the system I am using when I run the commands?
3. I can do this activity from either of my Win7 environments - is there any advantage to using one or the other when I actually do the deed [e.g., being able to mark the new boot partition as active]?
4. is there any difference to this approach vs. using BCD Backup/Repair - Change Boot Drive?
Thanks
