Moving the boot directory to another partition

I would seldom do this, and because of that, like everything else it
is more simple said than done...

Can anyone comment on the easiest way to make a copy of my c:\win2000
boot directory to d:\win2000 in order to change the boot.ini and do
some testing while booting to d:\win2000.

Of course, when using XCOPY with all the appropriate switches
(including /C to ignore errors) it gives "sharing violations" while
running NT.

I noticed that the recovery console does not offer an XCOPY
equivalent...

This may be an OLD question, but what is the best and most simple way
to make a copy of the directory to the d:\ drive?

Any comment is appreciated...

- What exactly do you mean with "boot directory"?
- What is the purpose of the exercise?
- Where is Windows installed on your PC? It's usually C:\WinNT.

"boot directory" is where I keep my "cobra booty" and "camel humps".
The "purpose" of this activity is to make a cobra / camel hybrid.
I have a Window's harem bunker with my WMD's for safe keeping.
LOL.

After consulting with my lawers with the definition of "smoke", we
have found a definiton that is inconsistent with my world and
culture...

We are going to take you to court and sue you to the fullest extent
for using my world with your statements...

The easiest (by far) way is to install a second copy of Windows at
D:\Win2000.
