(this page is pretty old, I've found not everything on this page is currently "necessary"). bootsect.dos must be present in the DOS partition, if you don't have it you can create it yourself very easily by booting from a floppy disk and then following Step 2 on this page: DOS must be installed on the first partition of the HDD, otherwise it wont work. I got it run in different configurations but the easiest way is: The reason I create the image in 3.2 is because my vista expires every 30 days (120 with the trick), so when it expires instead of repeating everything I just ghost the image and continue from (4).īCD for DOS is really simple. Ghost everything so you can create images in the future Vista will automatically update Hdd's boot sector.Ħ.1 Optional: Boor into Vista, install programs, set up everything and then use transfer settings wizard to save your settings.Ħ.2 Optional: Boot into Vista and use Bcdedit to organize your boot up menu.ħ. Boot into XP and create partition 3:NTFS and 4:NTFS or Fat32 (this last partition is where I store images, settings, etc).Ħ. Optional: in this step I make a ghost image of the disk because sometimes for other systems I need XP and DOS only.ĥ. The installer will automatically set up the bootsector for DOS and XP.ģ.1 Optional: Boot into XP, install your programs, set up everything and then use the transfer settings wizard to save your settings to a file so you can in the future easily re-create your system in case of fail.ģ.2.
Run XP setup from CD and install it in partition 2. Don't use all HDD, leave free space to later add Vistaģ. First create 2 primary partitions in your HDD: 1:FAT32 2:NTFS.
