System Restore Points in a dual boot enviroment

Is it possible to change the path where the System Volume Information is
stored? I would like to be able to store the SVI files on an external hard
drive. One could then load the drive after you boot to Vista. Restore points
could be created while you are in Vista,then unload the drive before booting
to XP.

System Restore points must remain on the same partition that Windows
Vista is installed on.
