What I have managed to do so far is make my usb flash drive bootable, copy the contents of 7x32-bit iso to the route - tested installing - worked ok
Created Portable Win7PE with PStart etc - renamed and copied the generated Wim file to SOURCES directory on flash drive as bootp.wim
Used EasyBCD 2 to change boot record so I get asked to install Windows 7 32-bit or run Windows 7 Portable.
I just need to add drivers to allow Portable 7 to run universally accross all our machines - I'm currently stripping the huge installer files out of my driver folder.
Separate USB Key acquired for Win 7 64-bit installer!
The next two goals of my project are to setup a customised win7 installer - following guides on here! and to try and install Windows XP from same active partition as everything else!
Is it not that the wims contain the os types e.g. x64 or x86, so as long as a wim is made in x64 mode and dismounted correctly, you should just be able to put an x64 wim (whether this be win 7 etc) in the sources folder and use the easy bcd boot menu to point to that wim?

Can any other user tell me if that is the case?
