Hello everyone,

I was trying to find a post in regards to this topic but I did not have much luck. I have created a win xp sp2 image with some of my softwares but I have a cd burner handy only. Is there a way to burn this Win XP image to multiple cds or create an image of Win XP for multiple cds? Of course, I would have to be able to boot from the first CD (just like some of the larger softwares on multiple cds where during installation you are asked to insert the next cd).

Any comments or links to posts with this information will be highly appreciated.

Thank you,

besnia :D

I know for sure that Ghost will let you do it....

a:\ghost.exe -split=600 -auto

limits the image size to a maximum of 600 megabytes (MB) for any one segment.

Just put some boot code on the first CD to launch Ghost and you're in business.

Create folders.

First folder -> under 700 megs -> windows itself -> make that the Windows XP image.
Second, third, fourth, ... Folder -> second disc -> extra apps -> just burn the contents to a disc

Check my sig for a cd-switcher.

Nanaki,

Great job. That was exactly what I was looking for. I will test it tonight.
