If you assign a drive letter to that partition the error goes
away.
Thank

uEFI is a new standard for
booting systems that replaces the traditional BIOS boot. Our Dell servers
toggle back and forth between BIOS and uEFI, but once you’ve installed an
OS in one mode or the other, you have to wipe the disk clean to switch to the
other boot methodology. I don’t know why Symantec was unaware of this
change, several of our hardware vendors notified us 2-3 years ago they were
have been moving towards uEFI. uEFI adds a hidden boot partition in the FAT32
format. This replaces the standard MBR for BIOS. Anyhow, I’m sure
Symantec will have it figured out shortly, and you only really need to restore
it for BMR. I suppose if you were booting multiple OSs it might be nice to get
back the boot files (think grub) but this is a minor inconvenience here.

Is this an issue with 7.0
only or 7.0.1 also? Just wondering because we are about to upgrade from
6.5.6 to 7.0 to 7.0.1.
Thank you,

This is a known issue…
and as far as I know, we are waiting for a fix… I’ve got a case
open about this and Symantec is working on a fix, but is having some issues
with that…
At this time, my windows admins
are saying this isn’t a huge issue since they have to build the machine
before we can restore data to it… but I’m still waiting on the fix as
I’d feel better if this was getting backed up!
