Hi folks

does anyone know if it is possible to run Windows XP on a system
without a hard drive?

I was thinking of creating a 'hard-drive-less-system' running Windows
XP, but does the O/S require one, or can it be run purely from a CD?

There are many places to download it.
Problem is that at least some of them are malware.
If you can find a good one, it's very handy.

If you plan to run from CD, you don't have any place to save stuff.
Might as well run a live linux CD. MACPUP 5.50 is a great one for that.

There's a portable virtualbox that can run a windows instance from a thumb
drive, but it's really hard on the erase life of the device.



Is this type of thing feasible?

Or if you know of any place that sells such a system I would be
interested.

ccboot will do this, it is cheap and ok for me
