windows server 2008 how do I mount a disk and have it available at startup?
I created a vhd on another drive. I can mount this using the Microsoft built in disk management tool and use it as a drive. If I reboot, it is gone. How do I mount it so that it stays through reboot?
My goal is to install an os on it and use it for a dual boot. When I go to install from the reboot, I don't see the vhd listed. If I startup to windows, I don't see the drive available unless I mount it again.

You add the VHD to your BOOT Manager.

Thanks, but the first few options wont' work because that is after startup. How do I add it to a BOOT Manager? I don't know much about hardware, networking, or anything like that. Please be specific. I am a developer and have no idea about the BIOS or anything like that.
