IoCreateFileSpecifyDeviceObjectHint in Win2K

Hello, All!

As I see IoCreateFileSpecifyDeviceObjectHint is now available under Windows
2000. Security update (at the least KB890859) installs a new ntoskrnl.exe.
My question is: checked version of this update is available? How to debug
drivers in checked OS build when some kernel update is required?

Eugene.

Sorry, there is no CHKD version of the W2K kernel available for security
updates. In fact when the W2K URP is released (should be very soon)
there will be no CHKD version available for it either.

For what? I can’t install security update on checked build…

It is sad. If a problem occurs on Win2k and does not repeat on XP/2003 what
I should do? I hope it does not happen with me but checked version of URP is
a big problem?
