C:\bootex.log is a 0 byte file that chkdsk can't delete when the
server boots. Q218461 describes enhanced chkdesk and all that but
doesn't specifically address what to do in this situation. I found a
tip for XP that looks promising, but don't know if it applies to W2K ;
The fix is to run under the Recovery console by either booting from
the Windows XP CD or running \i386\winnt32.exe on the Windows XP CD
with the argument /cmdcons. When in the console, run chkdsk.exe /p to
fix the file. Then type del c:\bootex.log to remove the offending
file. Reboot, and all is taken care of.
My idea is to boot into Safe Mod and try to delete it, or install
MoveOnBoot, a freeware util that does just what the name implies, but
these cowboy moves are a lst resort on this sunny Friday.
Suggestions welcome
