I would think that the slipstreaming could be done in XP within Parallels, but I didn't try it.
Slipstreaming works just fine in a VM running Windows, whether you choose to do it manually (see the winsupersite.com link mentioned earlier) or choose to use nLite and have it spit out a bootable .iso ready to be burned. Pick your poison.

I can't think of way to integrate SP3 onto an existing disc "on a Mac" that doesn't involve booting Windows under VMware/Parallels.

I'll see if I can make an msi (if you're brave) and an iso installer.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20449278 Wed, 07 May 2008 23:42:31 EDT Re: [windows] Can I burn an XP, SP3 disc on my Mac? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20449249 Thinkdiff : That would work if SP3 was distributed in ISO form.

ha.

Terminal

hdiutil burn image.iso

It'll boot with windows.

I'll try to slipstream sp3 on a mac tomorrow. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20449086 Wed, 07 May 2008 23:06:38 EDT Re: [windows] Can I burn an XP, SP3 disc on my Mac? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20446088 daveinpoway : Thanks to those who replied. I downloaded the SP, burned it to a CD-R and installed it- worked fine.

That saves a lot of time for future installs.

For example, if I should decide to use Boot Camp instead of Parallels, I don't believe you can drag anything between the Windows and Mac partitions, since only one can run at a time.

For SP1 and SP2, Microsoft provided free CD's of the Service Packs that you could order, but it appears they are not doing this with SP3. I feel sorry for the people with dial-up or very slow broadband connections. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20444144 Wed, 07 May 2008 07:04:49 EDT Re: [windows] Can I burn an XP, SP3 disc on my Mac? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20444054 rugby : You could also just share your home folder (probably on by default so look for shared drives) and navigate directly to the file from Parallels.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20444054 Wed, 07 May 2008 06:11:49 EDT Re: [windows] Can I burn an XP, SP3 disc on my Mac? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20444040 Thinkdiff : Why do you want to burn the update to a CD? you can just copy it into the Parallels windows partition by dragging the update file into the parallels window.

But yes, you can also burn it that way. The SP3 installer from MS is just a regular exe file.

You don't even need to use Toast, you can just use the Finder's built in disc burning.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20444040 Wed, 07 May 2008 05:58:23 EDT [windows] Can I burn an XP, SP3 disc on my Mac? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20444014 daveinpoway : Toast 9 Titanium offers an option to make a Mac & PC data disc.
