I have created a BartPE from a XP professional installation CD. My question
is: is is possible to test it out on a Home edition system? I mean just look
at the IDE if there is any. I am not going to apply any of the options.

Final question: when I run the BartPE CD does it mean that my desktop is now
running XP professional and not Home edition?

While running under a Bart PE boot you're running the
Windpws PE installation environment. You're NOT running
the OS that is installed on your hard disk. You can therefore
use it on any machine, regardless of its installed OS.

i would also add
to barts pe the plug-in
for "drive image xml" and
add the "drive image xml"
software to that cd.

with the above and
the additional cd's that
have the "images" for
your o.s., your recovery
is assured.
