Aloa,

i tried to merge all six windows xp bootdisks in one big image.

i took the first disk as a seed-image and changed the size with easyboot to 5760 KB and injected al the files from these six images...

after adding the new big image to easyboot he always reboots my computer if i try to start the image :-(

Sorry, XP disk images cannot be used directly with EasyBoot. Please see a previous topic Make a Windows 98/2000/XP 3-in-1 bootable DVD. for making XP bootable CDs.

Aloa,

yes i know how to make a cd including the windows 200/xp setups...

but i want to use the xp repair console (included in these six floppies) within my easyboot configuration...so i don't have to use the xp-cd.

is there another possibility to get the xp repair console working with easyboot???

thanks,

Aloa,

i finally resolved the problem: it is the same as making bartpe or erd commander to work with easyboot

you only have to replace the files in the i386-folder (renamed to whatever) with the files from the six xp-floppies...

now i also have the repair console in easyboot...and now i'm quite happy!!!

I'm Attempting the same thing... can You post what you did step by step? How did you launch the Recovery console, what run command.

I have a recovery console only CD but can't get any kinda image to load. closest I get is missing NTLDR...

Anyone have some thoughts, just after the 8MB for recovery console.

Thanks.

Ahoi,

first of all: you don't need bartpe to get the repair console.

ok, how to get the xp-setup and the xp-repair console to work:

1. get xp-setup floppies: i think you can find them on the xp-setup-cd or you go to microsoft.com an download them

2. make a directory in you easyboot-structure named "WXS1" (Windows XP SercivePack 1)...i also have the Windows XP ServicePack 0 and Windows 2000 SP0 - SP4 floppies thats why i have "WXS0", "W2S0" to "W2S4"...

3. extract the content of the six xp-floppies to this directory

4. open the file "setupldr.bin" and replace all "i386" with "WXS1" (hexeditor)

5. expand the file "txtsetup.si_" to "txtsetup.sif": open command promt and type: expand txtsetup.si_ txtsetup.sif

6. delete "txtsetup.si_"

7. open "txtsetup.sif" and replace all "i386" with "WXS1"...but you have to keep that "i386": Architecture = i386

8. extract the bootsector of you xp-cd to you "ezboot"-directory and name it "WXS1.bif" (i used ultraiso)

9. open "WXS1.bif" and replace "i386" with "WXS1" (hexeditor)

10. thats all, use "run WXS1.bif" to launch the xp-setup...

if you boot these floppies you will see the normal xp-setup... but there is one step when you will be asked if xou want to repair your xp with the console (and thats why i need every windows 2000/xp-servicepack combination: if you want to repair an windows xp sp0 than you need the correct floppies: you can't use servicepack1 floppies for some commands)
