Rescue and Recovery incompatible with Microsoft Systems Management Server 2003
Symptom
Microsoft System Management Server (SMS) 2003 will not install on a system with RNR installed with the Windows PE area already installed as a virtual partition. Both Windows PE and SMS use the c:\minint directory for the filesystem.
Affected configurations
Any ThinkPad or ThinkCentre system running Microsoft Windows XP or Microsoft Windows 2000 with Rescue and Recovery version 1.x, 2.x, and 3.x.
Solution
The work around to have both installed at the same time is to install Rescue and Recovery as a Type 12 partition, see the Best practices chapter for instructions for installing as a type 12 partition.
