NTLDR is missing NTLDR manque
[[NTLDR]] itself, and boot.ini, which contains configuration options for a boot menu.
To load an NT-based OS, ntdetect.com must also be present.
Here is the procedure to move some existing windows installation from one harddisk to an other.
It worked with windows 2000 from sda1 to sda3
DISK=/dev/sda PART=${DISK}3
sudo mkfs.vfat ${PART} sudo rsync ... ...
fdisk -ul ${DISK} | grep ${PART} | awk '{ print $3 }' | xargs -n 1 printf "0x%08llx\n" 0x003ccaf8 # rev 2 by 2 is : f8 ca 8c 00
hexedit $PART # go to 0x1c and type code ^
hexdump /dev/sda3 | head -n 2 0000000 58eb 6d90 646b 736f 7366 0000 0802 0020 0000010 0002 0000 f800 0000 003f 00ff caf8 008c
fdisk -ul ${DISK} | grep ${PART} | awk '{ print $3 }' | xargs -n 1 printf "0x%llx\n" # 0x3b9133
sudo ms-sys -w ${PART} # FAT32 DOS boot record successfully written to ${PART} ## Disk I/O Error ...

finally it booted on hdd not qemu
next step is to install to ums :

Source has WinXp and Win10,
Copy with ddrescue from 40GB to 80GB disk:
NtLdr complains: Error: 0xc000000e
Solution: put new disk on same ide cable
Possible solution is to use:
FixBoot c:
Windows 10 cd
bootrec /scanos bootrec /fixboot
