How do I extract the bootsector from XP SP2 CD?


Recommended Posts

What program is the best to use to extract the boot sector image file from and XP CD?

The reason for this is when making my unattended DVD I do not want to have to create an iso and then burn the iso. Instead I want to use Nero to make the bootable DVD on the fly but I need the Microsoft Corporation.img file.

I also do not want to just download the img file as I would prefer to know how to extract it and make sure it is the correct file.

I played around with ultraiso and winimage and winiso but do not see how to extract as an img file.

with ultraiso I can extract a .bif file but not sure how to use that in nero. Or is the .bif file the same as .img and I can just rename it?

using bbie I exported the following 3 files

bootcatalog.bin

bootrecord.bin

image1.bin

I assume all I do is rename image1.bin to image1.img and use it in nero?

Also the settings I am using are based on this site, is this the best way to burn an unattended cd?

nero xp sp2
