Burning a Bootable, Slipstreamed Windows XP CD in K3B

Follow this guide to slipstream XP with the Service Pack of your choice and then instead of using Nero use K3B with these settings to burn the CD:

(original site)

Settings that DON'T matter
- load segment
- volume name

Settings that DO matter
- file system

So now, k3b settings.
In "edit boot images"
- Boot Load Segment: 0x0 (My retail CD actually shows 0x0, but you can use 0x7C0 if you really want)
- Boot Load Size: 0x0

In "Properties" -> "Filesystem"
- Select "DOS Compatibility" then click "Custom..." (I selected DOS... just cause it's the cleanest template)

Then make sure the following are checked
- Generate Joliet extensions
- Omit version numbers...
- Allow 31 characters...
- Allow ~ and #...
I left everything else unchanged

Now burn and you're good to go.

Actually, if you're really lazy, all you really have to do is
- Select DOS Compatibility then click "Custom..."
- Check Allow untranslated ISO9660 filenames.

Suggesting a correction. Don't use the 'lazy' option. If you enable lower case characters, the iso and CD gets stuck on "Setup is inspecting your hardware configuration"!
