Hello,

I'm trying to install a WinXP x86 using netboot.xyz.
I've dearchivated the ISO and there are no files named bootmgr, boot/bcd, boot/sdi, sources/boot.wim

How can I do it ?

XP used another installer method so those files would not be included on the XP media. This currently supports the method used in Vista and on.

Out of interest, would it be possible to boot the ISO with memdisk & kick things off that way?
