Re: Merge XP Pro CD to SP2

Hi,

My installation CD for XP Pro is a pre-SP2. How can I create a new installation CD that already includes SP2 (and preferably also the latest security updates). I have found some info on how to slipstream sp2 but nothing on how to merge it to a new installtion CD. Any doc or kb explaining how to do this?

Thank you
