    Installing XP without a CD drive

    Follow these steps:

    1. Create a boot floppy on a Windows 98 machine. (or get it here: http://files.frashii.com/~bootdisk/alabama/boot98se.exe)
    2. Boot your new machine with the boot floppy using the "boot with CDROM support" option.
    3. Place the Windows 98 CD into the CDROM and at the c: prompt navigate to the Windows 98 directory on the CD. <--- you can skip this step, by dling smartdrv.exe and xcopy.exe over the web and copying it to the floppy
    4. Start smartdrv.exe and copy the xcopy.exe command to the c:root. (If you can't find it you can easily download a copy from the Web.)
    5. Put the XP CD in and xcopy the installation folder (I386) to the C: drive.
    6. Switch to the copied folder and type winnt.exe (the XP installation command).
    7. Windows XP will now install itself.
