im not sure abt bootable disk ... u can store ur applications with norton ghost

Yes you can.

Have a look at MSFN forum for Bootable CDs of XP. You can use cdimage to do that.

All other software can be placed on cd. To install it automatically, after XP installs, check the Unattended XP CD guide on MSFN.

but not automatic installation of xp with such application.
the size will not remain one cd i think , if we integrate such application in xp.

Have a look *www.wpiw.net/
It is difficult to make a good Post Installer script. But once done, you just have to insert the disk, start installation of XP and go for lunch, come back and have your desktop ready with all applications installed.

the size will not remain one cd i think , if we integrate such application in xp.

That may be issue, then will have to limit no of applications or move on to DVD.
