Is there anyway to install windows xp into the \winnt directory instead
of \windows?

The place I work at uses novell zenworks to deploy application
snapshots to the desktops.
these snapshots are hardcoded to use the \winnt directory since windows
2000 used it.
Id like to upgrade to windows xp but the default directory name of
\windows will break all
those snapshots. So its either recreate all the different snapshots or
get winxp to use a dif
default directory name. Is it possible to do?
