Need to make bootable DVD

Is there a super bootable cd that I can use to boot off of and run Windows XP normally. I don't mean a Rescue CD or Bart's disc. I want to boot off a DVD and run Windows XP just like I would do with Linux. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.
 
jaredhmr,

While this is possible, it would most definitely be a "hack". It would aslo violate the ULA of MS. The XP system/activation links certian system items to the install and this would not allow universal booting from a CD/DVD drive.

Linux on the otherhand is "Open Source" so they do not take any measures to prevent this.

Hope that you understand that this would be a violation of the MS use agreement.
