Vista - Adding WinXP recovery console as a real GUID to the Vista Boot loader - instructions in here

The Vista boot manager displays all settings from boot.ini in the boot menu that appears when you start your computer, but those
items in boot.ini are not genuine Vista boot manager options, if you delete boot.ini, they won't appear any longer. I found a way to
add the WinXP recovery console (in case you installed it on your harddisk) as a genuine GUID to the Vista Boot Store. Follow the
following instructions:

1) Create a new item in the vista boot store by copying ntldr item:

bcdedit.exe /copy {ntldr} /d "Microsoft Windows XP Recovery Console"

2) make copies of the files ntldr and boot.ini in c:\ and rename the copies (NOT THE originals!!!) to:
ntldr -> recc.bin
boot.ini -> recc.ini

3) Open recc.bin in a Hex Editor, find all instances of "boot.ini" and change it to "recc.ini".

4) Open recc.ini in a text editor and set it to:

[boot loader]
timeout=0
default=c:\CMDCONS\BOOTSECT.DAT
[operating systems]
c:\CMDCONS\BOOTSECT.DAT="Microsoft Windows XP Recovery Console" /CMDCONS

5) open boot.ini in a text editor and remove the "recovery console" line, it's not needed any longer, since from now on the Vista
boot manager will take care of that item

6) Finally, change the path of the osloader for the newly created GUID:

bcdedit /set {GUID} PATH \recc.bin

where GUID is the guid assigned by bcdedit to the new item. You can find it out by using

bcdedit /enum all

Here's a snapshot of the final settings that should make it more clear:
