No go...

I just tried installing SP1 and I'm running into the same problem I had when I tried SP2 (a few re-installs ago). I'm getting "Stop: Inaccessible Boot Device" errors on reboot. I tried using the Rescue Disk and booting the last known good configuration, but neither worked. I can't get back to the desktop.

I'm not sure what it thinks happened to the boot device, but everything works fine in Win98SE. I'm wondering if it's because I'm running a multi-boot (System Commander 2000). Maybe it's detecting the Win98 partition? I can lose the multi-boot, but I was hoping to keep Win98 around until I get used to Win2k. Probably a good idea, since I'm having problems already.
