XP slipstreaming

[Spic]

I have now spent days trying to combine a SP1 & SP2 XP disk to no success...... HELP!!!

 

so far i have followed the ryanVM intergrater process and have a I386 folder on the harddrive. i have managed to get an image file off the original disk (SP1)

 

what i really need is someone to lead me step by step using the integrated files. what i don't understand is if i should bring the other files and directories across from the original SP1.

 

once i have this all together how do i create a iso and then make the disk.

 

all help really apreciated getting desperate!!

Here are three links for creating a XP CD and slipstreaming--I have used them and they work--the last one has a good slipsteam method even if you are creating the CD from an existing XP CD:

Note: the current version of ImgBurn will not create a bootable OS CD--it is a known problem which is in the process of being corrected for the next version.

any idea how to create a bootable disk for rebuild then?

nlite created the iso which should be bootable, imgburn just burns it, except you seem to be using a cd-rw

 

 

I just used a verbatim cd-r no problem
