I've had this problem under Windows 2000 when using Ghost to dump a backup image to a server with different hardware. The repair suggestion in:

has usually solved the problem.

We are preparing for an off-site Disaster recovery drill, in our test lab I've installed two parallel Windows 2000 servers that mirror our production environment along with the TSM client V5.1. In the test lab I've built the operating system with HP SmartStart V7.1 along with Windows 2000 CD. The production servers have TSM V5.1 installed, the dsm.opt file has 'domain-all local' so the system objects and files are being backed up. In our test environment the first portion is to restore the system objects. After the restore is completed then you are required to reboot the machine. Since the servers are on dissimilar hardware we tend to get an 'inaccessible_boot_device' upon reboot.
If you're getting an 'inaccessible_boot_device' message, the disk controller driver that was restored is not compatible with the disk controller installed on your DR box. The source server probably has a different controller (or a different release of the same controller) than the target server.
