I only have one CD rom drive on my system. If I boot my machine with the BartPE cd in the drive, how can I get it so I can swap out the cd for another one (like a windows xp install disc)? My hard drive is blank, so I can't boot off of it. My underlying goal is to be able to install windows from bartPE. The problem is, whenever I take the BartPE disc out of the drive, it stops working. BartPE freezes up and I have to restart.

You can try loading BartPE on a Ramdisk, using the NTLDR from Server 2003 SP1.

You must have lots of RAM though.

There is an ongoing thread here:
