[X4U] Do I *HAVE* to have WinXP with SP2 for Boot Camp???

[Christopher Collins]

Yes, Yes You Do.

You MUST have SP2.

Having said that, do a search on google for slipstreaming. http://www.google.com.au/search?q=slipstreaming+sp2&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

The first 5 or 6 show how to integrate SP2 into an existing SP1 CD.  
Will be basically a Windows Tutorial, but it should also be able to be  
done on a Mac.

Otherwise, and I didn't say this, search for a torrent with XP Home  
SP2. Nothing else will work with your serial number so don't even  
bother trying to get XP Pro.
