I solved, it. I can success fully boot xp sp3 or windows 2k3 server R2 sp2 off the same DVD. I used a few tools LIKE Easy Boot AND create multiboot folders, but i also had to generate boot files all over again and by copying them over from ~ls folder minus the setupldr winnt.sif. by running windows setup. it flawlessly worked. i Made a nice boot menu for it. no ntldr error

:rolleyes:

may i share copy's of my work with out the 25 digit license key

Just thought I would put a little something here... First off I've found this posting which shows some promise: Link. Not sure if they'll figure it out though, and in order to read that you'll have to create a free account.
Anyway it would be nice if someone could find or figure out how to edit the boot loader without Server 2003 SP2 saying it is corrupt. I sure would like to be able to multiboot with this OS... If I knew more about with I would try to figure it out, but I'm not a programmer.

Hmmmm... isn't it done the same way as x64 or 2k3 SP1 versions? This is the first I have heard that it was changed. I'll have to do some testing myself then.

edit: Here is the link I use for x64/2k3 sp1:

But I guess people are saying it doesn't work for sp2. :(

What I've seen with Server 2003 SP2 with latest hotfixes (not unattended, not multiboot) is that on the next boot after setup, it gives the blue screen (inaccessible boot device) if it was not PARTITIONED (not only formated) with its setup CD.

I gave it few tries and then gave up, so can't give definitive claims about the behavior (not tested thoroughly), but it was consistent.

Also nLited heavily, but I think it didn't matter.

*Edit: Maybe it has something to do with this .

I know in the past when it wasn't possible to edit the 2003 SP1 setupldr.bin file we would just copy setupldr.bin from a windows xp disk and replace the 2003 setupldr.bin. It worked in the past. I have a feeling it will work for 2k3 sp2. I haven't tested the theory though. That could be a workaround for now until we find a better solution.

I tried this using a XP SP2 file and it gets to the blue setup screen but then stalls before entering completely...

Hmmm... maybe try a 2003 server sp1 file modded with the modifications needed for the sp1 file? Maybe it will be more compatable since it is a 2k3 file.
