XP Home Installation from Dos

[Guest]

I bought a Gericom Hummer laptop, and I got a recovery CD with it. So when I
try to make a clean installation of Windows XP, I insert CD, restart my
computer and enter the installation. I made a clean installation of Win XP
Pro many times on the other computer, so I know how the process should look
like. When the setup prepares the installation, I should get a window to
choose from clean installation, to repair Win XP...(I got that every time I
reinstalled Win XP Pro), but in this installation on my laptop, installation
automaticly starts to repair Win XP. So, is there any way to make a clean
Windows XP Home installation, using Windoxs XP Home recovery CD that I got
with my computer?

You'll have to contact Gericom Hummer support and ask them
how to use their recovery CD.
