This is so close to what I am looking for. I have done it with Windows XP but I am looking for Vista and Windows 7 solutions. I would like to be able to copy the needed files to the hard drive from my network (using linux rescue disc) and reboot and be installing the OS on the same drive that the source files are on (c:). On the Windows XP install that I have used it just removes the install files when complete. I run a computer shop and we reinstall all flavors of Windows every day so this would be really nice to not to have to find the correct disk. Just boot from live cd select OS from menu and install. Thanks Brad Nice work…

And probably..not tested most useful if you do this on a Thumbdrive or external hard drive This is great for notebook computers with no internal or external DVD-ROM Drive available.

LOL all my dvd drives are ide so $1500 system and no way to install. since I'm upgrading to win7 at the same time as this upgrade, its a very welcome feature. Also read alot netbooks dont have optical drives :P So thanks for the info, but I have a retail disc already :) I agree its not worth it, but just ordered my new system last week, and got blindsided that it had no ide port!
