Vista - Creating VHD fast - has anyone tried this?

Hi,

I ran across this a couple of days ago:

http://blogs.msdn.com/virtual_pc_guy...tion-tool.aspx

I've tried it, and it does create a new VHD very quickly, but I've
encountered problems with the resulting VHD (see the comments).

Has anyone else here tried vhdtool.exe, and does the resulting VHD that
you get work all right?

FYI, I'm using VPC2007, and the drive I created the VHD on is NTFS.

I would love for this tool to work, but it's kind of not very useable
unless the VHDs that it creates are correct ...

Thanks,
Jim

Hi,

I just figured out the problem with this tool, and posted on the blog
page for the tool:

http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/vhdtool

Hopefully, the author will take a look at the suggested fix and
incorporate it.

For now, I've modified and compiled the source, which seems to be working.

Later,
Jim
