No need to, since the WIndows CD is already bootable.

But if that won't boot for any reason (faulty CD, faulty drive),
you can still create a set of floppies to boot XP. You can get
the software needed to create the floppies free from MS. I don't
have the URL, but the file needed is called WinXP_EN_PRO_BF.EXE
and is around 4MBytes, so you could search the MS site for it.
