I have been working through the instructions in "Windows XP Embedded
Step by
Step" to make a bootable CD. After FBA completes on my build it asks
me to
run "ewfmgr c:" to see if Enhanced Write Filter was configured
properly.
When I do this I get the following response: "Failed getting protected
volume configuration with error 1."
the overlay type is RAM
I have know idea what error 1 is or where to go from here. Any ideas?

ewfmgr is failing because EWF could not be configured during FBA.

Verify that the disks have no more than three partitions. Because EWF
creates a temporary partition during FBA, there must be 1) Enough space on
the disk, and 2) no more than three partitions on the disk.

If you've run through FBA before and did not delete the EWF configuration
paritition, you must delete the EWF configuration partition. This can
sometimes prevent you from re-enabling EWF when running FBA again. This
will show up in the FBA log as "EWF returned an invalid file handle."

Taking a look at your FBA log, there are several problems. First one (if
you are creating a bootable CD) is the Non-El Torito Disk Configuration.
make sure you insert your PRE-FBA run-time image CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive
when you run FBA. FBA will search for the eltorito.sys driver on the CD-ROM
drive and use that drive identification during FBA.

Also, EWF looks like it is starting enabled. FBA requires that EWF starts
DISABLED. Clear the "Start Enabled" check box in the Enhanced Write Filter
Component setting in Target Designer..

Hope this helps clear things up.
