How to have both type of recovery in a single setup DVD

[jayadratha]

I have made windows AIO disk using DISM but never thought about this. Well I saw every windows setup disk has a recovery built in boot.wim. But we never stressed on boot.wim when making AIO. We always merge two install.wim & because a x86 boot.wim handles both x86 & x64 install.wim so we use only x86 boot.wim.

Now the question is in those cases if I install x64 OS & after that if I need recovery from setup disk then the recovery which is in AIO says this OS is not supported.
I dont know if it is only for me but I read that a recovery depends on same architecture of OS. So how to merge two boot.wim to have both type of recovery.

I know I can make two folder for two structure and create a bcd to call the respected folder. But I want to merge both boot.wim & install.wim. Two boot.wim is ok but no two install.wim.

Anyone know how to do this?

Well, you can't 'recover' a 32bit OS from a 64bit OS DVD.
And given the insignificant 'price' of a DVD, why would you bother trying to merge all that into one DVD?

well I have created a multi boot drive. So need to save space in the pen drive. I have downloaded a multi architecture win10 iso from media creation tool. But size is 5.5GB

Well this iso have both 32bit and 64bit setup plus both type of recovery. That is it have two boot.wim and two install.wim. I can merge install.wim. But cant merge boot.wim files

So you are saying there is no way to merge boot.wim files two a single??
