Hey Guys,
I'm stuck, I appreciate your help. Could anyone plz help me with how to make a bootable multi OS DVD? I wanna burn Win 98, Win XP home and Pro on one DVD. I did a lot of research and none of those procedures worked. The online help of Easyboot did not seem to work either.plz help me out from scratch.

I have to ask, "What did NOT work?"
Easier to work from that angle as the the instructions from previous posts do work.

Hey Mate, Thanks a millon for replying.
After hours of work I've managed to create Win98 and WinXp PRO ISO file. The file image size was 1.2 GB so I burned it to DVD 4.7 GB. I used " Windows 98 and Windows NT/2000/XP 2 in 1 bootable CD" instructions in Easyboot help. I dont know why it says 2 in 1 bootable "CD" when it will never fit in a 700MB "CD" 
I want to make 3 in 1 DVD. Win 98, Win Xp home and Win Xp pro, thats right. I dont like Win 2000 and I dont have one. Could u help me creating 3 in 1 DVD "Win98 , Xp home and Pro". I'll appreciate step by step instructions as I'm just a beginner. 
Thanks in advance.

Awright, me ol' China!
Here ya' go in a nutshell:
http://forum.ezbsystems.net/cgi-bin....try1140
All you'll have to do is create two separate folders for each version of XP (i.e. XPHM and XPRO).
Follow the steps and you'll be golden, pony-boy.

Hey Jefe Thanks for ur reply. I tried ur method and created 3 in 1 DVD ( 900Mb) but it did not work, then I tried the ezboot help and followed the instructions step by step CAREFULLY but this is what I get:
The windows 98 worked fine but for windows 2000 pro I got this error message " ndtlr could not be found" I see a lot of people getting the same message for Windows 2000 pro/server. AND for Windows Xp pro I got this message "could not find the license, setup cannot continue". 
Am I missing something? PLEASE HELP

Mate,
What EXACTLY are you trying to load?
Your previous post said XP Pro, XP Home and 98. This last one deals with Win2K, XP Pro and 98. Hard to help if the goal posts keep moving.

Please, make sure you use caps (uppercase) when hexedit (using EasyBoot>>Tools>>Replace text…). You have to use caps to every bin-file (w2ksect.bin and setupldr.bin) you are hexedit. Something went wrong during hexedit process if you get this: “ndtlr could not be found”.
This message: "could not find the license, setup cannot continue" is typical for miss-match in “setupsourcepath” (you haven’t made, or forgot, necessary changes in txtsetup.sif).
Follow up with reading here about “primary root” and “second root”: http://forum.ezbsystems.net/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=1;t=1188
Regards eureka

Hey fellas, sorry, before I was creating 98. xp pro and xp home but now that I got windows 2000 pro, I was like lets give it a try.
Here's exactly what happened. I used ezboot help to create 3 in 1 DVD.
When I was following the instructions for w2k, on step 6
****step 6 to 'c:\easyboot\disk1\en2k\setupldr.bin', and replace 'i386' to 'en2k', 4 occurences should be replaced***
in my case, instead of 4 occurences ONLY 3 were replaced. I'm using ezboot to edit the setupldr.bin file.

Partition Magic is wrong!
Should be:
2. Partition Magic 8
a. Insert disk 1 and from Winimage select Disk | Read disk. Once this is complete remove disk 1 from your drive and select Image | Change format... then click the radio button next to 2.88 MB
b. Insert disk 2 and open Explorer and click on A: to view the contents of the second disk
c. Press "Control" + "A " to select all the files on the floppy
d. After all files are selected hold the "Control key" down and unselect autoexec.bat and command.com
e. Drag and drop the remaining 8 files into the winimage window and choose "yes" to inject the 8 files
f. Select File | Save as… and type in C:\EasyBoot\disk1\ezboot\pm8.img and click Save
