I was resinstalling a Windows 2000 server for disaster testing and it wont
reboot after reload. I was following the instrutions found in the pdf  "Disaster
Recovery Strategies with TSM"

I successfully restored the C: drive and System object, I then choose to
reboot and Windows doesnt start and gets the message

Windows 2000 could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
<windows 2000  root>\system32\ntoskrnl.exe
Please re-install a copy of the above file.

Has anyone seen this before with a TSM restore, Both client and server are
running TSM 5.2.3. Windows server is 2000 with SP4.

I did get a popup before I rebooted stating that some Windows files had gotten
replaced and it need the install CD. I figured that I could ignore that since I 
was doing a full replace anyway.
