Hi,

I am trying to make what I am referring to as a "Unified Image". The company I work for has developed a hardware/software platform for use in operating rooms to record surgical video. We have four OEM versions of this software.

The operating system is Win2000 SP4, and the software is the same for each OEM. The difference between the OEMs is essentially wallpaper images, icons, desktop icon names, splashscreens, printer settings, a config file and the registry.

What I would like to do make an image CD with with one OS, and I am assuming a batch file that would apply the OEM settings, maybe under a runonce scenario. I would also like this image CD to be bootable and perhaps have a GUI interface, so that the installed can select from a menu the OEM build they would like to install.

Any help/tips/guidance on this matter is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

I'm sorry, I should have RTF'd the rest of the forum. This question should probably go under Multiboot CD/DVDs. :)

You can use the guides available in this forum to carry out what you describe.
You can also visit here for a detailed step-by-step guide - the process described there would be same as what you need, just that you'd be dealing with only 1 OS, instead of the many described there:
multi-boot guide

Then, use cdimage to optimize the CD to make all four installs sit on one CD.
