Many thanks! EDIT: Oops. I spoke too soon. Formatting with the system option was easy with Win9X, but I can't see how to do it with XP. There's no check box for it, and there doesn't seem to be a switch for it either... at least not according to format /? .

I've got an IDE HDD swap bay where I can swap drives in and out without opening the case. My CD drive frequently bonks during installation of XP Pro. Thus, I'd like to install from a HDD in my swap bay. Here's my question: How do I make this thing bootable? (All of the information that I'm finding so far pertains to making a USB drive bootable.) TIA

Really? No one else has thoughts on this?

The guide doesn't mention it (maybe for a reason), but if you use the systeminfo command from a command line, it lists the hotfixes that have been applied to your installation. What I don't understand about the systeminfo output is that the first 38 hotfixes all say "File 1". Can anyone explain this or point me to an explanation? [My search of "File 1" did not turn up any results.] If it matters, my OEM XP disk includes SP2.
