70-643

Hallo,
I just started working through te book: Configuring Windows Server 2008
Applications Infrastructure.
In the introduction one is asked to install Windows Server 2008 three times
in virtual machines. It is recommended to use Virtual PC 2007. Because
Virtual PC 2007 doesn't work well on Windows Vista home Premium, I use
VMware Server. I could install Windows Server 2008 three times. But now one
is asked to install WAIK on Server 1. I dowloaded an iso-file and put this
as "data" on a DVD. But I do not know how to install this on Server 1. I see
the file in de CD-drive on Server 1, but I cannot find any action to execute
for starting an install of this WAIK. Does someone know how this can be
done?
Greet you, Ans Hekerman

I am in the habit of using iso files myself. Open VMware and setup a new
virtual machine. Click on "Edit virtual machine settings." Under Device
clickon the cdrom. You can either select the cdrom drive you want to use or
an iso file.

You could test your DVD by using it to boot your computer to see if it
works.

Apparently, Ans posted to a number of groups - individually.

I just answered him in *.itpro.mcitp...

The key, to his problem, appears to be this minor technicality:

Thank you JR, I made the DVD in a wrong way. Had to use iso-maker-software.
Now I did and it works well. Greets, Ans

 

Yes, I posted in 2 groups. This 70-643 belongs to MCITP training, but on the
book, I also read MCTS. I have answered you in the MCITP community. It is
OK, I can go on again. Thank, all of you. By the way, Ans is a female name
(in Holland), so I am a woman. Greetz, Ans.

 

My most humble apologies! Assumption is such a terrible thing, and I
certainly am guilty of that this time.
