That's fine, we can put it on the wiki. However I'm using the
following
two links as my guide, and neither mention this:

For purposes of clarification, I think you mean you can mention that you need it on the Wiki, not that we're going to upload it onto the Wiki. We obviously can't do that, but instructions for getting it off of the CD are fine.
We can also have the code complain if it's not where we expect it when you do a distro add with --breed=windows, I'd think :)

I don't think even that will be required, I'm getting a XP system to boot with no problems, need to get vmware drivers loaded up though so it will actually install.
I've also found a solution to tftpd not traversing symlinks: bind mounts :) The only downside is they require a little bit more care when cleaning up, since an rm -rf will follow it and delete stuff you don't want it to.
You could just use hardlinks (os.link), an unlink will only remove the file if it's the last one.
