hi

i wanted to install windows xp on my external usb hdd, so i did the following:

insert win xp cd

boot

setup copies files to usb hdd (works fine)

first restart

boot from usb

windows xp loading screen

bluescreen stop 0x0000007b

k after a day of googling i found out that this is the normal behavior of windows xp (windows 98 works fine). this is because the nt kernel loads the usb drivers too late.

so i need a modified kernel or another workaround.

does anyone here can help me? :(

p.s.: will windows vista work?

windows is not *linux*. there is no way that you can't hack kernel. :)

about vista thing, it doesn't hurt to try it either :)

i downloaded the 2003 sp1 and extracted ramdisk.sys and setupldr.bin into my windows xp i386 folder and made a boot image. burned it and tried to boot : stop 0x0000007b :( any suggestions? i know it must be possible because bartpe works this way with this two files!
