Hi friends,

I am trying to make a multibootable DVD which will contain Windows Vista 32

and 64 bit along with Windows Server 2008 32 and 64 bit.

I am using WAIK but not getting success.

Can anybody help me out?

Hi Ausmith1,

Thanks for your suggestion.

I have taken Longhorn Installation Image in "Root" folder and created a folder named "Vista" in it and copied Vista Installation Image into that folder.

I have edited the bcd file of longhorn and given path of vista bootmgr into it.(i.e. \Vista\bootmgr ).

The DVD booted fine and shown two options

Windows Setup

Windows Vista

When I selected "Windows Setup", it successfully started longhorn installation.

But when I selected "Windows Vista" it again shown the previous window. I tried again and again it shown the same window. It is an Infinite Loop.

I guess, when I selected "Windows Vista" the bootmgr of Vista is loaded but it is using the same bcd file of Longhorn and showing the same options again.

If my guess is right, Can u tell me, How can I modify bootmgr so that it can read \Vista\boot\bcd file instead of \boot\bcd?

Thanks in advance.........
