Re: Installing an IMage using a bootable cd

I export the image as normal from Target Designer and then use BartPE
(http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/) to generate a bootable XP CD. In BartPE,
include the image folder in the build.

BartPE creates a .iso file that you can then use to create a bootable
CDROM.

Once the CD is booted, partition and format the hard drive and then use
xcopy to copy the folder to the hard drive. Something like:

xcopy /e /r /h /y e:\CDROM\ImageFolder\*.* c:\.

The /h is important as it makes sure you get the hidden files.

If the XP Image is large, you may want to zip it first. If you do, be
sure to include unzip on the BartPE cdrom you create.

You can get free zip/unzip programs at:
