Hi all,

I recently tried to install last Longhorn alpha 4051 PDC without success. There was a file ntoskrnl.exe missing or corrupted...

Anyway, I wiped the partition where I had intsalled Longhorn (E:, 5 GB), but when I reboot I still get the boot screen giving me the possibility to choose among XP (which is my "old" OS, Longhorn, and Longhorn Install.

Is there any way to get rid of this annoying screen? I tried to do a FDISK /MBR which works well when you have Linux in your computer, but I still have this boot scree...

Any ideas?

TIA
