Re: What is the best way to create recovery CD

Hi KM,

Thanks for your information.

I follow the instruction on msdn of topic "Creating an Embedded
Recovery CD by Using Windows PE and SDI". I can not find oscdimg.exe
and etfsboot.com. That's why I said I need to get OPK. Finally, I get
Windows AIK from MS web site which include these two files and PE2.0.
After boot up from CD, I can not run sdimgr.wsf, it ask me for the
program to open it. I saw you talk about cscript in other discussion.
But it is failed, too. :(

Then, I try to your another suggestion to create XPe image on CD. I
follow "Tutorial: Creating a Bootable CD-ROM" in help file. After the
CD created and I try to boot from it. The result is windows logo show
up, and then system crash (blue background). It's really a nightmire.
I don't know how to debug it. And once the CD boot up successfully,
how to recover system? Use sdimgr or write a program to do it?

Is there any eaiser way to create Recovery CD? I saw Windows AIK has a
tool Windows System Image Manager, are you familiar with it?

Thanks,
Justin
