I am in the process of trying to create a bootable cd rom.
But during the process when I run the command:
ewfmgr c: I get the following error:

Failed getting protected volume configuration with error 1.

I have read some old posts stating that you need
to have fewer than 4 partitions on the disk.
which I do. I have noticed that the above message occurs
when I have the CDROM drive connected and not
a secondary hard drive.

Note my target board I am working with has some unique
"features" it has two IDE channels, but the second ide
channels is dedicated to being used for two compact
flash sockets.
So If i want to follow the tecniques outlined in either
Sean Limings or James Cseri books, I have to have
one hard drive and one CDROM drive on the same
channel.

thanks,
 
revising and extending my remarks

This is a large hard drive with a large of amount of free space at
the end of the partitions.
 
EWF will create its partition in the extended partition, and it looks as though
you have no free space in it. Resize the extended partition to provide some
space in which the EWF partition can be created.
