Lets start with the Recovery Console, the command will install the Console as a boot
item, that's to say when windows starts up you will see the RC as a boot item...
It will ask if you want to use the RC or just start in the normal way..
One note about the RC you will need to enable some items with in the gpedit.msc so
you can use the RC , it's made for the Admin. to use not the normal user...
Read the HELP items in win2k for all the info about the RC and how to install it
or how to set it up...
The ERD can be made easy just go to the BackUp group and select make a ERD disk...
Start/Programs/Acc./System Tools /Backup
You will see it listed...
