SBS Installation on Alpha Does Not Convert Partition to NTFS (186283)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server 4.0a
- Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q186283 SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to install Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server on
an Alpha-based system that is already running an operating system on a FAT
partition, the partition is not converted to NTFS; the default for SBS.
CAUSE
Small Business Server needs to be installed on an NTFS partition in order
to operate correctly.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, remove all other operating systems before starting
the installation.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Small Business
Server versions 4.0 and 4.0a. We are researching this problem and will post
additional information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes
available.
