    Hello all.

    I want to copy the files from my XP setup cd to a hard drive, then use those files to install XP. I believe I can boot into DOS and copy the directory of the cd to C: then run the exe and install from there.

    Just looking for verification of that being the correct way.

    Do I need to create partitions to do that? If so, can someone lead me in the right direction?
