lets say you had a DVD that could hold all that 5h17 then yes you can. all 9x platforms you can take the floppy image and use that. then all NT platforms you have the bootloader for the cd you can boot that...but putting 5 Full versions of microsofts bloated OS\'s on a 840MB(MAX) CDR no you can not do that. in english or any other language

use a boot loader like the demonstration on BootScriptor.Org  and you can have 100in1 boot which ever you choose. the options are up to you ...because you create it.

A 5 in 1 existing out of win 95 win 98 win Me and win 2000 and win Xp is imposibale at a normal CD even if you use CDimage, there are to many different files that take up to many space, it\'s possibale to do it at a DVD but nut much people have a DVD burner and even booting from the DVD is diffucult.
You could try to delete some files out of the seaperate OS and see how far you come then.
But ones again first do some expermenting on your own start with a simple 3 in 1 and work from that point further.
Nobody on this form will be able to give you a all out written explanation how to do it cause Twinkie made already some very fine ones
So just try

Not sure about that question senne?

The multiboot CD\'s from my site are based on the diskemu boot loader I got from Bart (www.nu2.nu)  It acts for all purposes like an autoexec.bat file allowing you to pick from several boot options.  Install 2000=press 1, install XP=press 2 and so on.  You can use floppy images from WinImage to create your own if you want.  For ever key on your keyboard you can have a new choice.  Just depends on how much space you have on the CD.  

Many other sites are now doing the same thing.  Several now include their own automated multiboot generator.  The program will ask for each CD and then copy to the right spot while making any edits you need.  There are still some limitations to these and are not nearly as fun as doing it yourself.  They can still be useful though.

I know what your looking for but I dont have a link to the site that tells you how to do a Multi Bootable cd  but you can I know because I made a 8 in 1 Multi Bootable for Win 98 , Win 95 as well as all the Win XPs and I included tools as well . When I get to my PC at home I can give you the site that explains the differant N in 1s you can make .

Dreammaster, please forward your link to me, angeldustEmail Removed.

I stumbled on tech-hints.com and like thier approach from nu2.nu. I\'m now stuck with no room on my 703MB CDR.

My approach is to take win2k server, NT server and win2003 when available and then after the initial install hit it with NTSwitch and poof you have a 6 in 1. I squeezed enough room for a single boot floppy that I\'ve used before. I have to test the \"can\'t use a DOS boot to install an NT OS\" theory, cause I swear I used this for installing W2kPro in a 5in1 I made years ago.

I\'d be happy to share my boot image if anyone wants to dbl check my work.

Thx.

Well Ive made 3 3-in-1 cd's

one of the has all the 9x os's (including 98lite for me @98) and some extra files .. ie updates ect ...

the other is the bog standerd 2k pro, server advance server cd

Ive also made a xp pro / home / corp cd

all the 9x's are about 300 mb when all the rubbish is trimmed out

both the 2k and xp cd is about 450-600 mb when trimmed down to the basics if i remember correctly

In order to make an n in one cd you must know how to create one check out this multiboot on how to do it.  I have created 6 in 1 and 8 in 1 cd's with no problem.
