Your CD should tell you if it has SP2 or not. If it does not you can easily get it here.

it says:

"A bona fide full version of Microsoft Windows: XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2, WIndows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate. (No upgrade or multi-disc versions)."

follow the unattended guide at least through the integrating of service pack 2, you can go further if desired but not required. The resulting cd will work for a "bona fide" XP SP2 cd as far as boot camp is concerned. You don't have to have one made by Microsoft, just one that has SP2 integrated into it. I used my XP cd from the original release, (What 6 years ago now?), after integrating SP2 it works fine.
