Boot Windows XP Setup

After the "XP-Pro.ddimg" file is finished being created, locate the "XP-Pro.ddimg" file with the "Choose Disk C..." or type in the field next to the button:

~/XP-Pro.ddimg


In the "Choose Disk D..." field, specify the Windows_XP.dmg file that you (should have) created in step 1 by typing in the field next to the "Choose Disk D..." button:

~/Windows_XP.dmg

If you choose to not make an image of your installation CD, leave this set to "none".



In WinTel, Select the "Boot from CD-ROM" option.

With WinTel 2.1.3 and later, installing some versions of Windows®, such as XP no longer requires that you disable the "Dynamic Translation" option during installation on the Intel® Macintoshes.

Your screen should look similar to the screen below:


WinTel 2.1.3
PowerPC Macs and Intel Macs:


 


Now that we have our boot CD-ROM image, disk C: image selected, we are ready to start the emulator. Click on the "Boot Virtual Machine" button (or just hit return).


Welcome to Windows Setup!

Hit the "Enter" key to start installation.


 
You will have to agree to the Microsoft license before continuing.  

 
Select the "disk" to install Windows onto. We have selected our only option: our WinTel disk image.  

 
Choose your desired file system. We selected the default "NTFS" file system.  

 
Our "C:" disk image must be formatted to be used.  

 
Setup will create a list of files to copy. This may take a moment or two.  

 
Setup will take a little while to copy the files. This may be a good time to take a coffee break.  

 
After some time copying files, Setup will report that it initializes the configuration.  

 
Setup will then restart.  

 
And XP will boot.  

 

Setup should then continue with the installation. It is normal to stay on this screen for about a half hour.
