   Very nice - I wonder if you can do this with Vista, or 2003 Server?

   Did this very thing last weekend via a different route but hurts like hell because it is unbelievable slow! Not only the setup process but also running it.. or should I say crawling it… disk-access to the 16gb ssd is 100%, just not workable. Installed all correct drivers etc via nLite.
   Saw one tip on one of the forums to run the install not from USB (because of only native usb 1.1 performance) but run it from a prepared SD-card.
   Have problems getting this to boot.
   Re-imaged my lovely Linpus-image over the Xp install and got rid of this MSH in 14mins!
