Createing an ISO for a recovery CD

T

Tommy

According to the MS directions for creating a recovery CD, you need to
create a iso with these files in the iso...
recovery.sdi
sdiaut.dll
sdimgr.wsf
win51
win51ip
win51ip.sp2
winbom.ini

We'll my problem is that my sdi file is larger then a cd, so I'll need a
DVD, second as far as a ISO, cant you think of an ISO and those files all
compressed into one file, and then (assume you have software to do this) you
click the ISO and it burns itself to a CD, in my case DVD. Whats the
difference between doing that, and just burning all those files to a bootup
DVD and then using the sdimgr.wsf to write the recover.sdi to the HD?
Anything?

The SDI file limitation is 500Mb AFAIK.
