Bootable CD Invalid Partition Table

Description

After booting the post-First Boot Agent (FBA) bootable CD, the error "Invalid partition table" is displayed. The bootable CD image was not built on the first partition of the hard disk drive. This partition must be primary and bootable.

Resolution

Create a 650 MB partition at the beginning of the disk for the bootable CD run-time image. For more information, see Bootable CD-ROM Design Considerations.
