I need to upgrade 32bit server 2003 to server 2012 essentials (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/0d87db8a-a6d0-4adc-9dc2-d31fb7a2021b/32bit-server-2003-upgrade-path-to-2012-essentials?forum=winserver8setup&prof=required - this is the thread with details on setup and such)
Since it's 32bit moving to 64bit a direct path isn't available and I've seen mention of doing a p2v of the original server and installing the 2012 server in 'migrate' mode. It was suggested I check over here for steps to do a p2v of the original server, so here I am. Where do I start?
