how to combine xp, 7, 8, etc into a bootable usb?

[steve6375]

Do you mean you want a bootable USB drive that will install XP or 7 or 8 onto another hard disk or do you mean you want a USB drive that you can boot directly to XP, 7 and 8 all from the USB drive?

[totoblack100]

You can use xboot but sardu doesn't allow this!

[steve6375]

Or see Tutorial 63 on my site - if you already have a grub4dos booting Flash drive, you can add the ISOs using this tutorial.

You can also install XP using WinToFlash - see Tutorial 102 on my site.

Excuse me but this is false.
Only SARDU at this moment can build automatically and whitout knowledge Windows XP, Vista AND Seven AND Eight from the sum USB whitout partitions

 

xBoot don't support installer of Windows

Yumi support only Seven OR Eight

i want the latter so I can choose what to install meaning Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 8 will be available on the list to be booted and installed.  i also want to have live versions of them(portable ones) so i can carry them wherever i go.

TYVM(thank you very much).  I will try the tutorials.

What is SARDU?  Can it combine XP, 7, and 8 al together to be booted and installed?  or can it boot all bootable softwares?

@ Davide costa You see, when I put in a single partition my bartpe,win7pe, it does not work. I think that it is syslinux !syslinux used by sardu can boot the only systeme(bartpe or win7pe) Added in the first one! When I add bartpe in first time, bartpe work, but not win7pe!and vice-versa! Then I create 4 partition on my usb 8go, the 2nd with bartpe,slax, the 3th partition win7pe, and in the 4th partition:konboot,hdd regenerator, partition table doctor.! I don't know to setup a bootloader for all partition,then I use partition manager to boot The partition which I want to use. I don't use xboot because it doesn't allow to boot in other partition(2nd,3th...) bartpe with cfadisk

[totoblack100]

@mister Davide costa The problem is syslinux used by sardu to boot bartpe is syslinux3 and with win7pe sardu use syslinux4. Or in a single partition, There is only one syslinux to use to start booting bartpe and the win7pe . Thus, when I add win7pe first, it work fine, but bartpe don't boot.Because sardu use syslinux 4. And when I add bartpe first, it work fine, but win7pe don't boot.Because sardu use syslinux 3. Excuse me for my bad english !

[davidecosta]

SARDU is one multiboot builder that can create one USB with single partition for install from the USB Windows XP, Windows Seven and Eight.
Build one menu named windows for the choices.

Last SARDU use isolinux 4.x, today I release a new version (even syslinux 4.x), next week one version with both Syslinux 4.x than 5.x

 

SARDU use only one partition

 

Now I read that SARDU don't works fine and xBoot yes (build all windows)...if anyone can demonstrate this....

[totoblack100]

if moklo want to setup xp, 7, 8, etc from usb, yes SARDU is one multiboot builder that can create one USB with single partition for install from the USB Windows XP, Windows Seven and Eight. But, if it is about bartpe, win7pe, win8pe, moklo must add her iso as a extra iso as makes it xboot! But this technic is only available with the primary partition of the usb. Bartpe.iso don't run with other partition on the usb!

[davidecosta]

Mmmm

SARDU can build one USB with all theses without use extra functions
 

• LiveXP (Pe 1.x)
• Windows PE (pebuilder PE 1.x)
• UBCD4WIN(Pe 1.x)
• WinXPE(Pe 1.x)
• VistaPE (Pe2.x)
• Win7peSE(Pe2.x)
• Multi7PE se (Pe2.x)
• Windows XP Home, Sp1, Sp2, Sp3
• Windows XP Pro, Sp1, Sp2, Sp3
• Windows XP64, Sp1, Sp2
• Windows Vista
• Windows Seven
• Windows Eight

I don't know why it says otherwise. At this moment only one software can build automatically one USB with one partition with all these ones installer: SARDU

okay, i will try SARDU to see to it.  What I mean is can windows XP, Vista, Seven, Eight, etc. can be put together in a bootable usb so that i can choose any of them and install to the hard disk?   TYVM

Just for the record:

 

• LiveXP (Pe 1.x) <- Yes
• Windows PE (pebuilder PE 1.x) <- Yes and NO, it is a PE 1.x but Windows PE is NOT made by "pebuilder", a BartPE is made by Bart's PeBuilder, Windows PE 1.x was made by original MS procedure and only distributed/licensed/allowed to a restricted number of people OEM or "partnering" with MS.
• UBCD4WIN(Pe 1.x) <- Yes
• WinXPE(Pe 1.x) <- Yes
• VistaPE (Pe2.x) <- Yes
• Win7peSE(Pe2.x) <- NO, Pe3.x
• Multi7PE se (Pe2.x) <- NO, Pe3.x

where can i download these various PE's?  could anyone give me the links, please?

You do not "download" a PE.

You "build" one, starting from the corresponding OS install files (for which you have a proper license and/or that you can download directly from MS).

The whole idea behind non-redistributable fiiles is that you cannot re-distribute them.

I used copy and paste for write 2.x for all images

Thanks to Wonko for revision

so, how can i build one? what program to use? what are the steps?

[totoblack100]

ok mister Davide costa. I have tested the latest version 2.0.6 and it work fine with bartpe and win7pe in the same partition!
The error came from the version which I used (version 2.0.3 of Sardu).this version cannot boot with both systems(bartpe and win7pe) in the same partition. But I like and I always use this version because it recognize all partition of my usb. Since version 2.0.4 to 2.0.6 Sardu Do not detect any more the other partitions on my usb. I don't understand why you dismiss the ability to recognize all partition of usb on the latest version of Sardu (2.0.4 to 2.0.6)?

I dismis this for fully compatibility

[moklo]

@ davide costa: does SARDU support pclinuxos?

 

@ steve6375: how can i put pclinuxos .iso file to flash drive and boot it and save configurations like the Parted Magic?

 

TYVM

[davidecosta]

We are going OT.
For question about SARDU there is the forum

pclinuxos isn't in my roundmap at this moment

[Wonko the Sane]

so, how can i build one? what program to use? what are the steps?

Are you for real?

 

One every three or four threads on this board is about PE building!

 

Just take some time looking around, google for the keywords in the posted list.
