For example, the Windows XP boot disks have 6 disks. How can I burn the contents of these 6 disks onto a CD and then boot from the CD? I tried it, but after booting the first disk, when it asks to insert the second disk, I have no way to continue.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Then make one extra-large IMG file, copy all the files from all the floppies into this one IMG (it seems WINIMAGE doesn't support IMG files of arbitrary size, not sure what software does?), then use EASYBOOT 4.51 or above (supports IMG files of any size as boot files and also has burning capability) to burn it

I can make it on a USB drive, but it still can only boot the contents of the first disk, and it still prompts to insert the second disk

Copy the contents of several disks into one folder
Then modify the BAT!

The Windows XP boot disk doesn't have autoexec.bat, and I also tried copying everything into one img, but that didn't work either.

I want to ask, what do you need so many complicated boot disks for? Even if it's to repair WINXP, there are many tools for that, no need to use the original WINXP tool spread across so many disks.

Then let's keep it simple: tell me how to put XP's 6 floppy boot disks onto a CD and make it bootable, that's all I need

The following is quoted from kecj's post at 2003-12-1 10:42:02:

How do you make it onto a USB drive? Can it really be done with winimage? And how do you get that boot sector onto the USB drive?
