[cisco-voip] OS 2000.4.1

[Simon, Bill]

I don't see that any one responded to you on this.
 
We encountered 0x7B Inaccessible Boot Device blue screen errors not when
updating the OS (as might be expected) but when installing a CallManager
service release!  After working with (and without) TAC for several days the
only solution we had was to rebuild this machine from scratch (our publisher
- sigh).  
 
TAC was not helpful to us in this case and continually pointed to the
hardware as the culprit.  However, nothing on the hardware had changed and
after many scandisk/checkdisk operations we found no problems with the
disks, either.
 
Rebuilding the system DID take care of the problem but we were unsatisfied
in that we never did figure out what the problem was and should it surface
again with an upgrade, we will be in the same boat.
 
Good luck,
Bill

Hi,
I just came across installing OS 2000.4.1 for the first time and wonder how
is everyone else's experience with it? A pleasant surprise was there's only
1 DVD per vendor now (HP/IBM) and the whole imaging process requires less
interaction. The installation finsihed with a mini-setup but after a
restart, I end-up with a blue-screen (INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE)... Very
strange, as this is reproducible and happens everytime. On a 2nd server
(both MCS-7825-H1) the OS boots, runs HP utilities installation, restarts,
and ends-up in a different blue-screen (KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED) and
unable to boot. I've never experienced anything like this with the 2000.2.x
installations, but they are not supported on this platform... 
Martin
