There are lots of tools for creating RAM drives. None of them seem to work for windows 2008 R2. Does anyone know if this is possible and if so how. Does anyone know of a tool that does work? I've tried the gavotte ram disk. It doesn't work. When i try to install it it just sais 'Failed'. I don't see log files anywhere. Insert the installation disk, boot from it and configure the hard disk for your needs. Or what i would prefer, use SmartStart from HP prepare the server with RAID controller and hard disk setup and install the software also with SmartStart, follow the included wizard. Is there an existing domain or do youhave to create a new one?
