Hi,

Although I've replaced my IBM T41 with a MBPro, I'd like to get a copy of XPSP2 from it so I can install BootCampo, but IBM's come with a recovery partition that holds XP and there are five install discs for when the recovery partition doesn't work. Any ideas how to get a slipstreamed XP CD out of it?

Thanks,
NoBob.

This is not possible AKAIK. Also it's not be within the license terms. XP on that ThinkPad is nontransferable. You need to buy XP OEM for $100.
