How to create ISO image with nLite 1.4.9.1?

[pierze]

This could be a noob issue, but I'm having a hard time doing the final step of writing my lighted OS image to an actual (bootable) ISO file. A great example is this tutorial: http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=1923 , except that when I get to the equivalent of step #15 I just get a "finish" button, as opposed to the "next" button shown in that tutorial. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get to the equivalent of step #16, where I write all my content to an ISO.

For the record, I'm using nLite 1.4.9.1 on a Vista Ultimate x64 host to customize a copy of Windows XP Pro Corporate, which I plan to write to an SD card for installation on a bunch of netbooks that can boot from their SD slot (they see it as a USB device, I think).

1st Welcome to the forums.

And at step 4. of your guide, did you see this on your screen:

5. nLite is free for personal use only, you cannot use it for any company or business purposes at this time.

and did you click "I accept" or "I do not accept" ?

At step 8, are you sure you selected "Make Iso" ?

Step 15's picture is not really a step, it's the working state after you click "yes" to "Do you want to start the process". This leads you directly to picture "step 16", without interaction. I can't remember what happens when you don't select "Make ISO" at 8. but possibly what you describe.

First, yes, I'm using this for personal use: the copy of Windows was bought at a corporate liquidation. Perhaps that's not legal? I believe this is just normal old Windows XP Professional (which has Remote Desktop, a feature I need) and Microsoft just added the "Corporate" because it was originally sold to a company. I can't find any information about legal or technical differences between Pro and Pro Corp online, but feel free to correct me ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_XP_editions ).

Second, I missed the "bootable iso" button, and duh, you have solved my problem! Thanks.
