I have also found BartPE (
http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder) as great tool for many different things.
One advantage of PEBuilder over MS WinPE is that it seems to have greater and faster support from his enthusiastic developer(s).
E.g., it already supports XP SP2.
There are actually more options to substitute WinPE. E.g. WinInternals' ERD Commander.
See more info here:
http://www.seanster.com/Super_WinPE/SuperWinPE1.htm.
Also, it may not be hard to create your own XPe Minlogon/CMD based image on a CD for a particular platform or some platforms. You
can just use EWF or /MININT boot.ini switch.
