W2k registry

[bdj]

After install W2k, I would like to copy the cab files to the hard drive so I can create a ghost image and have the cab file available for installing on different system. There is a section in the registry that point to the location where the cab files were located when W2k was installed. If I can change the pointer to the local c: drive this should work, but I forgot where that section is located. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Setup and substitute your hard disk path for the existing CD-ROM path. Next, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion. In RegEdit's right pane, double-click SourcePath and enter the new path.

You should also check HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Setup and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Setup\Installation Sources for a path to the CD-ROM drive. If the CD-ROM path appears in these keys, then change them to the hard disk path also.
