Hi Stefan,

Probably it would be possible to do. You can find some info posted by me how
to make USB Flash boot (not complete though).

This could be modified for CD boot also, but this would be hard to do
(testing this and making it work could take days, since you would need to
pass all phases and to burn CD to find your self with BSOD 7b).

You must use Kernel Debugger to see what parts of USB driver stack loaded
before BSOD and modify start times of each driver so whole stack is loaded
before EL-torito driver. This all can be done from regedit or trough very
specially prepared component in TD.

Easier approach would be to:
Create RAM boot solution from SDI file.
And then make El-torito CD that would boot XPe from SDI file.

Regards,
Slobodan
