[Bug 613288] Re: wubi installation failed - boot configuration store could not be opened

[Jason Tucker]

In Windows 7/Vista, if you get the "boot configuration store could not
be opened" error when installing with Wubi, try this:

Go to Administrative Tools -> Computer Management -> Disk Management.
See if you have a small (100MB or so) partition at the beginning of one
of your drives.  On mine (an HP) it's called SYSTEM and is 106MB.
Right-click on it, select "Change Drive Letter and Paths..." and if it
has no drive letter, add one (it doesn't matter what letter) then close
everything and try installing with Wubi again.

Once I assigned a drive letter, bcdedit.exe was able to access the boot
configuration store and Wubi installed fine.
