Been trying to make a bootable CD to install XP as per
http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=297.

(I've got the setup stuff on one of MS's MSDN DVD disks, but the target PC is so
messed up that I can't boot from it's HD and the MSDN DVDs aren't set up for
boot/install).

I think I'm pretty close bc the CD I create boots into Windows XP Professional
Setup. Only problem is the "....cannot find End User Licensing..." message
that pops and then makes me abort the install.

EULA.txt is, in fact, present on the CD under the i386 directory.

I even tried making a second CD with EULA.txt (along with IEEULA.CH_,
NEWEULA.HT_, and NEWEULA2.HT_) both at the root of the CD and under i386, but
Setup isn't having any of it

Can anybody elucidate?

For what it's worth, when I put the CD into a working system and let the
GUI-based installer start up it seems to find the EULA - or, at least, it shows
me a confirmation dialog containing a license agreement...

But in command line mode, it says it cannot find same...

I'm doing an end run right now - a bare-bones 2000 install from an MS install
disk I had laying around. Then I'll follow up with the XP upgrade from DVD.

But I'd still very much like to know about the EULA thing - if only for creating
disks in the future.
