Dpuzzler55 Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 I would like to move my slipstreamed WinXP install cdr to cdrw. I want to use DirectCD or Nero InCD to create this cd so I can easily add drivers, patches, etc without reburning a new CD. My question is: Is it possible to create a bootable CDRW that still has drap and drop ability? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaclaz Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 My question is: Is it possible to create a bootable CDRW that still has drap and drop ability?Short answer:NO, but read long answer belowLong answer:The formatting of a "regular" CD or CDRW (ISO9660 with optional extensions) as compared to the type you call "drag and drop", which proper name is "UDF" or Packet writing, is VERY different.BartPE/WinPE (bootable part) need the first one, the "drag and drop" feature need the second.Search with google for "bootable UDF", and "boot UDF" there are some people around who claim they succeeded in making a "mix of the two", booting a linux system, but there is no handy solution avilable at the moment.Nero supports UDF/ISO Cd's , but they are not bootable.jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rendrag Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 it's rewriteable, can't you just erase and reburn the new image? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
