137GB Barrier

[Mark Ballard]

I have recently read an article about slipstreaming
Windows XP Service Pack 1 into Windows XP and producing a
hybrid disk to Install Windows XP with SP1 integrated.

I am aware such a practice may void my licence agreement
and I wanted clarification on this before I go further.
The reason I wanted to do it was the 200GB drive I have is
partitioned into two inline with Article ID 303013. By
slipstreaming the install I could get a single partition
of ~200GB. The question is how can I add the necessary
registry patch supporting "bigLBA" during a slipstream
install?

Thanks
Mark

Install 200G drive. Use XP (which exists on a different drive) to
partition/format the 200G drive with no logical drives. Re-configure 200G
drive as PRI/MASTER, boot from CD, and install XP onto 200G drive. When
prompted to partition/format...say no. (Keep existing file system)

Please post a follow-up.
