>From XPe (not XPP) after FBA you should be able to access CD as D: or E: and see pre-fba files on it. As long as El-torito driver is
working correctly.

To ease your testing make sure that:
1. Your target computer have one HDD with one partition.
2. You create Pre FBA El-torito CD from this HDD only.
3. From XPP you should see C: and D: D: should be pre FBA-XPe files on El-torito partition that is on CD.
