Please forgive me if this is a topic that's been looked at before. I did a search and didn't find what I was looking for. If this topic has been posted, kindly point me to it and we'll pretend this isn't here. The multi-boot DVD is cool and the unattended Windows XP CD is pretty cool too. Here's my idea. I've got a lot of opensource/freeware/shareware applications that I've downloaded and wouldn't mind having a tutorial on how to create a Windows XP bootable DVD. This way I could include many of these applications, drivers, etc. on the DVD. They don't necessarily have to be "unattended installs" for the apps. It's just that I've found that I cannot make a bootable Windows XP DVD using the standard method. It wouldn't need a fancy menu. It would simply boot, install Windows XP SP2 (Pro or Home) and all the "extra" space on the DVD would be reserved for a whack of useful applications that are just taking up space on my HDD. I've had a HDD die on me recently: the drive where such applications where stored. Ouch. It hurt. But it would have been cool if those apps were on a setup DVD. I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction. Thanks.
