How to Create Bootable XP CD with Integrated SP1

I tried the following
1-Create an image for the orginal CD then tried to edit it but the Nero and CD created are not allwaing me to edit the image because it is a bootable CD

2-I tried to create a bootable CD but the the follwing options were available
Floppy Emulation: Floppy Emulation requires a bootable floppy to make the bootable CD. When it is booted, the CD behaves as if the floppy were inserted in Drive A. The drive letters increment, so that Drive A: corresponds to the bootable CD. Floppy disk drive A: can be accessed as B: after booting. The size of the start data is basically limited by the capacity of the floppy disk (e.g.: 1.44 MB).
Harddisk Emulation: A bootable hard disk is required to create the bootable CD. When booted, the CD behaves as if the CD were Drive C:. Its 'old' Drive C: becomes Drive D:, its old Drive D: becomes Drive E: and so forth. Up to 640MB of boot data can be stored on a CD with this type of bootable CD. Of course this means that the template drive must not be bigger than 640 MB or it will not 'fit' on the CD. So if you have a 2 GB hard disk with only one 2 GB partition for example, you will not be able to create a bootable CD from it without first re-partitioning your hard disk in a suitable way. This is a problem of principle and has nothing to do with Nero.
No Emulation: This feature is only intended for use by out-and-out experts who require no floppy or harddisk emulation and wish to install their own device drivers. 'Windows 2000 CD' uses this method, for example.

Unless you have an MSDN CD, the standard XP distribution is bootable from a
CD-ROM

"How to Create Bootable XP CD with Integrated SP1"
I assume that you are trying to "SLIPSTREAM" an XP service pack to create a
new bootable XP CD with integrated service packs.

This is covered on several different web pages (you can also search on
Microsoft Knowledgebase about Slipstreaming):
Newer slipstreaming approaches use either Nero and CD Creator (check that
you have the latest updates as the versions you are using).
.... and are MUCH EASIER to accomplish:
