Thank you , no more Missing Fiadisk.sys but now i got SetupOrg.exe missing but I was able to figure out that error, so now I was able to install Xp via ram.. yay!!! so happy took me almost 10 hours yesterday trying to figure it out, I was bored at work, so this helped kill some time but at the end of the night I wasn't to happy but today , you made my day.

One thing I did notice was that once I fixed the setupORG.exe, i got the firadisk.sys missing again but I press the ESC to skip file and it then it asked for IMDISK files, but i just skipped them all and it let me install windows xp.

[Install XP from a RAM loaded ISO image]

I manage to figure out the xp.iso and grubdos setup, but for some reason I can't load the Firadisk.sys files, every time that I'm about to format the hard drive, It tells me that setup cannot find firadisk.sys, I tried loading the fire driver via nlite and that still didn't work. Any tips on how to get this going would be nice, thank you.
