Can somebody help? I have 4 versions of Xp on 1 CD, all slipstreamed to Sp2. On the first reboot I am asked to insert Sp2 CD. I believe I have added all the files needed to the image. Get error:SXS.DLL:syntax error in manifest or policy file
"E:\xph\I386\asms\10100\MSFT\WINDOWS\GDIPLUS.CA_"
on line 0.
Error: Installation failed: E\xphm\I386\asms. Error message: Manifest Parse Error: Invalid at the top level of the Document.
I'm pretty new at this and am in need of a pointer or two.

Please do not check 'Joliet' option when making an ISO image, and try it out agian.

Thanx xoben. I do have that file in the root of disk1\ along with the files from each slipsteamed version.
I think I've followed all the steps correctly. There are 2 xp prof versions ( oem and vol ) and 2 xp home versions (oem and vol). Do you think thhis might be the problem?
Thanx again.

What did you use for the SlipStreaming process? Third Party utilities or Command Line?
Is this a typo (xph vs xphm):
E:\xph\I386\asms\10100\MSFT\WINDOWS\GDIPLUS.CA_
and
E\xphm\I386\asms
Also, where is this message showing? During the TextMode setup, At first Reboot (GUI), provide more informations please...

I unchecked Joliet but it didn't make any difference.
I used command line to slipstream sp2. "xphm" is the folder that contains the I386 from xp home. I then used the batch file from ezboot to extract the files from I386.
I boot from the cd. Install setup files. Windows reboots and tries to continue installation(gui). Then I get the message"please insert wnixp sp2 disc". Windows is trying to access \I386. I tell it to go to \xphm\I386 and I get above error message.
The 4 versions of xp install fine as stanalone versions ( on individual discs )

I had a similar issue and I discovered that I had to change my method to obtain my BOOT folder.
Take a look at this method to obtain the proper boot folder:
http://flyakite.msfnhosting.com/xpprosp1.htm
FOR EXAMPLE:
I did a comparison of my method and the batch file provided with EasyBoot (w2k.bat) on Windows 2000 Pro SP4 (french version).
I have theses extra files
| Code Sample | c_1252.nl_
c_850.nl_
kbdfr.dll (fr = french version?)
vga850.fo_
|
I also have 4 empty signature files (with no extension) but I am not sure they are required.
| Code Sample | disk101
disk102
disk103
disk104
