XAMP + Ampstart
http://ampstart.com/
From checking the docs, what you do is setup XAMP on your system,
configure and install everything, than copy it all over to a CDROM along
with AmpStart. You need to update the INI file as the MySQL database
will need somewhere to store new data(Sessions, logons, etc) - so what
Ampstart actually does is copy the MySQL database over to a directory
you specify on the PC and runs from there.
As an alternative, use a USB drive, you can get 1G drives fairly cheaply
and then you will have read/write access to the drive and no need to
depend on the directory existing.
I imagine a more involved solution would be to run MySQL and have it
place all the tables in memory, so any updates will be done to the
memory versions and when you stop the program running it reverts to the
default set and does not require a directory on the hd to store data.

Hey All,
A few years my hero Mitch showed up at a tradeshow with Mambo running
on a cd in a windows/xp environment. Does anybody know how to do this?
I have a client that wants to have his site running off of a cd. I do
have a budget for this.
Thanks for your help
Norman
