Hi blim,

i am experienced on BartsPE, but i was not aware of the fact,
that Windows PE 2.0 was for free. The Only little"drawback",
but its not a real drawback is, that you have to build the PE
from a Winpe.wim but its ok since so you can create different
and user defined PE Images. Its good, since its a microsoft
original tool environment.

But just to clarify: This does not solve my original question, nor
does it helpme in doing the thing i wanted to do.I t is just something
Don told us "by the way", which i consider usefull for future tasks
but not really helpful to my original question (maybe in future). But
i am very thankful for that Information, since it was something that
i can use in my daily work, when time has come for it!

Greetings

Kerem

Yes I understand. But after making your Bart or Win PE ISO file(s)
just configure whatever bootloader you use to point to them (and any
other ISOs you want... Linux, MAC, whatever). A CD is way too small,
you need to do this on a DVD.

I've used grub and lilo to multi-boot (from a DVD) various versions
of Linux. They should be able to boot a Bart or Win PE ISO file too.
Why not ? If the Win ISOs can be "single" booted from a disc, then
it can be part of a multi-boot. The booting process from a disc is
not related to any OS. All the stuff the OS needs is inside the ISO.
It's not like multi-booting from the HD that involves using NTLDR/boot.ini
in combination with the bootloader.

I confess I've never tried it but it doesn't seem like it should be too
difficult
to do.

There are numerous other (freeware) bootloaders that may be better or
easier to work with than grub and lilo.

Check out this page on Bart's site describing (CD/DVD) single &
multi-boot methods ---> http://www.nu2.nu/bootcd/#whatis
You could maybe use his Diskemu program described here
---> http://www.nu2.nu/diskemu/
to multi-boot all your various Windows, Linux, MAC, whatever ISOs.

Creating a Multi-boot DVD
"I will show you just how easy it is to create your very own DVD consisting
of every Windows based operating system you could want as well as how
to add support and diagnostic tools as well. You will have one disc with
every operating system and support tool you could ever need!"

These are multiple operating systems on one DVD and booted from that
DVD. It does not involve the HD. There is no reason why you could not
include Linux and/or the MAC OS.

The above tutorial is at http://flyakite.msfn.org/

If you google this subject you will find other methods and tutorials as
well.
