couzin2000 Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 Sounds stupid, but hey, whaddya want from a newbie?Is there anything different I have to do if I make myself a Windows unattended DVD instead of CD, or do I just burn the DVD same as I would do for a CD (that is, just burn the .iso file)?Or is there any info/guide/specific thread I need to follow?thanx a bunch
glent Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 That has nothing to do with his question!the answer is no. just build it exaclty rhe same as a CD
couzin2000 Posted January 11, 2005 Author Posted January 11, 2005 I was under the impression that the "XPboot.bin" file was made only for CDs?I'll try it tonight, see how it works for me... I need a lot of space now, because apparently, because of BTS Driver packs, I now have a double-filled XP (over 830MB!!)So, instead of complaining, I'm gonna try to put it into a DVD, and maybe even install Anti-Virus and Ad removers in the process. I'll post back when I've completed my DVD to let everyone know it works or not, because there just aren't any threads on this forums that elaborate on that.
rendrag Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 Once your image goes over 700MB, you're gonna need a DVD... no change to the way you make the CD, i.e. you can still use CDIMAGE if that's your program of choice.
kenkueh Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 Get a DVD+-RW, burn the image u created, then u will know whether it works or not, it was actually same as building a cd.
Incroyable HULK Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 Small tips: With Nero 6.6 there is an option for "SHORT LEADOUT" which is giving an extra 12Mo of space. I am currently burning 714Mo on Maxell CD-R 700Mo.Also there is some 850Mo CD Media Available. For example, I have some BIT VIDEO VCD-R 99min. 850Mo. I had a chance to test once with these and it seems to be working perfectly... but I'll have to do more test before I give a solid recommendation.
couzin2000 Posted January 11, 2005 Author Posted January 11, 2005 Well I just bought myself a DVD burner, so I'm heading out to the store to get myself some -R and -RW media... should be and interesting (albeit bumpy) road. I'll let you know if I had anything to change in the makeup of the bootable DVD (i.e., XPboot.bim and other stuff)
