I've posted this in parallel thread without reading your post in another thread :)

So  am  I  correctly  understood  that you have successfully installed
Windows  7  RTM to iSCSI drive and now windows 7 boots normally? Could
you  write a small guideline how to install windows 7 for your environment?
This could really help to identify problem in mine.

Also could you give some numbers about Win7 boot performance? How much
time  it takes before windows logo appear and then before login screen
appear?

Thanks!
