Related to size (and difficulties) this must most likely be performed from an USB drive and NOT from DVD unit
Further more, you need to use a USB harddisk unit as USB stick\Thumb drive might fail :O

As this is EasyBoot forum it is vital we show how to launch this from the menu of EasyBoot
Don't you agree?

Here is possible solution to launch setup of NT6-systems from EasyBoot menu and using USB harddisk unit including launch setup of two different NT6-system!
Attention! Before you start using tutorial below you must format and create two partitions to your USB harddisk unit - where partition one is set to be 'active' (bootable).
Also use NTFS as file-system to both partitions!

1. Download my script-collection (you have it below - it is updated 11 Dec 2012)

2. Copy 'grub-kicker-image' setupntwin7.img and setupwin8.img from folder balder/USB_Resources to folder EZBOOT

3. Use menu command in EasyBoot: run setupntwin7.img and the same to setupwin8.img to launch setup of these two different windows system.

4. Copy Win7 files and folders (or extract from ISO-file) to the first partition

5. Copy Win8 files and folders (or extract from ISO-file) to the second partition

6. Rename 'bootmgr' that you have on first partition to the new name:   setupwin7

7. Rename 'bootmgr' that you have on second partition to the new name:   setupwin8

8. Create ISO in EasyBoot as usual...

9. To make USB harddisk correctly launch ISO-file created in step-8, we need to modify the BOOT SECTOR
Use my script 'easyboot-usb_v2.script' and in script tick: 'Force script to NOT format usb drive' to modify BOOT sector of USB drive to grub BOOT sector and also correctly create grub menu to USB harddisk to launch ISO-file created by EasyBoot (point to ISO-file created by EasyBoot when script asks for the location of ISO-file)

This launch EasyBoot from USB drive even EasyBoot is run from the NTFS-file system (you cannot run the file ezldr from NTFS - only from FAT or FAT32)
You can hereby use EasyBoot menu and launch your setup of the two different Windows system :laugh:

Note: I haven't fully tested this (only from the first partition)  

regards balder
