delukard Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 IT WAS THIS ONE BUDMAN http://www.lockstockmods.net/2008/05/26/easy-way-to-pxe-boot-windows/ i coudn't even started because, i coudn't get some of the files that the tutorial mentions .-Bart Network Boot Disk .-pxelinux.0 .-memdisk .-menu.c32 .-bartdisk.IMA BTW i tried the link you gave me, and read teh forums, and tried , but the dvd generators, hangs when updating sp2(common problem) it took almost 3 hrs , and it hanged at that point. Form what i read there is no fix. TBH i would like to try the way the tutorial i linked to you, but they dont have those files anymore, and the bart network boot disk, i cant make the image out of that one(confuses me) Thanks for your time budman, you have been very helpful. I do have a question. for you. on all the tutorials they mention to copy the i386 folder. All my windows xp images(done by me with nlite) have SP2 slip-streamed or SP3. will that be a problem?

+BudMan MVC Posted December 20, 2010 MVC Share Posted December 20, 2010 (edited) shouldn't be.. the i386 folder is just update. I will take a look at that tutorial edit: Ok I would have to read through this more to be sure.. But you need to create the bard network boot disk.. Sure looks like all the files are still available. http://www.nu2.nu/bootdisk/network/makedisk/ um is not the bartdisk.ima here off that tutorial http://www.lockstockmods.net/download/13/ I was able to download it off that site bartdisk.zip There I zipped it up since neowin does not like the .ima as attachment All of the files are available on page 2 of that tutorial edit: if I get a chance I will walk through that tut and test it - but from quick look, files are available to download and would have to assume it works, seems like a lot of work to put together such a thing if it didn't ;) Edited December 20, 2010 by BudMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i'll keep triying) Thanks again for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delukard Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 i have followed this tutorial. http://www.codesingh.com/2009/06/walkthrough-install-win-xp-by-booting.html i get to teh part where i can install windows, but it gives me this error(translated to Spanish to English) Windows needs a hard disk with 650mb of free space windows cannot see a hdd with free space.(something like that) On the bios the hdd is detected, i took the hdd 20gb and connected it to my pc, (usb enclosure)and formatted the hdd(all 20gb of the hdd , primary partition) and i still get the same error when triying to install windows i'll destroy the partition on the hdd, and leave it with no partition. and try again. Should i do something different? i'm so close!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BudMan MVC Posted December 21, 2010 MVC Share Posted December 21, 2010 And if you got the files from another site.. How do you know they are the same file?? Right click the link and say save as, and you wont get the garbled text in a page you talk about. I will prob have time to run through the tut tmrw morning -- going to spend some quality time with the wife tonight ;) heheh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
