According to the Bootcamp instructions, you must have a single-disk version of Windows XP with SP2. I have one with SP1 (I got it before SP2 came out). Has anyone tried with SP1 and determined that it does not work? Does anyone know how to take a disk with SP1 and add SP2 to it or is this impossible? Thanks
 
As for the first part I can't help there. As for the 2nd part. just do a google lookup on "Slipstreaming" you will find howto to Slipstream SP2 in to your SP1 disk and then how to rebrun the new SP2 copy of XP.
 
Thanks. I actually found that last night and it worked, but then I had another problem where I couldn't make the new disk bootable from CD to install windows. Do you have any idea how to make the CD rom bootable?
 
first off do you have a pc or VP on your mac?
if do then I can help you walk thought makeing the new disk work.
You email if you want so that this post don't get to big. email me at camgangrel@gmail.com.nospam just remove the ".nospam to make it work" talk at you later.
