I created a new VPC image in Virtual Server 2007 today, and created two virtual HD's for it.

(I like to put data on it's own volume from the base OS.)

I then proceeded to install Windows Server 2008 RC0 Enterprise Edition (Full not Core) and I hit a small roadblock:

 

 

After scratching my head as to why it said "This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu."  I tried to create new partition and format them on the two disks.  Um, yeah, no: That didn't work.

 

I restarted the install and doubled-checked the Virtual PC's BIOS.  It was set to boot from Floppy first, so I set that to HD0, and disabled the PXE boot as the fourth option, just to be safe.   As it turns out, I must have clicked the prior screen's Custom button twice, since the install proceeded normally and I was good to go.

Ho-hum... now for Visual Studio 2008 Team Suite once I get through it all. 

 

My goal is to get a 2008 VPC setup with SQL Server 2008 CTP5, 2008 VSTS, SharePoit Server 2007 and CRM 4.0 on it with all my dev stuff (ReSharper/Snippet Compiler/Reflector/etc.) to play with.

 

Wish me luck.  :)
