Cannot Create Setup Disks From MSDN CD-ROM (134971)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.51
This article was previously published under Q134971 SYMPTOMS
The following error message appears when you create the third setup disk
from the \checked\i386 directory of the Windows NT 3.51 MSDN CD-ROM using
the WINNT /OX command:
File Copy Error
Access is denied
You may choose to retry the copy, skip this file, or exit setup.
If you select Retry, Setup will try to copy the file again.
If you select Skip File, the file will not be copied. This is intended
for advanced users who are familiar with the various Windows NT system
files.
If you select Exit Setup, you will need to run Setup again later to
install or upgrade Windows NT.
CAUSE
Because the checked build version of Windows NT 3.51 Workstation is used
for development and debugging purposes, many of the files are larger than
those in the \i386 directory. The error occurs when Windows NT attempts to
copy NTKRNLMP.EXE, which is 1.22 MB, onto the third floppy disk, which has
1.19 MB of free space. The NTKRNLMP.EXE file in the \i386 directory is only
816,592 bytes.
RESOLUTION
To create the Windows NT 3.51 Workstation startup disks, run WINNT /OX from
the \i386 directory instead of the \checked\i386 directory.
