CD contents and other info

- There is an unused boot image for CHNTPW 0.99.3 (named "nthack.ima") in the cdboot directory, where the EasyBoot data is stored.
- There is a boot image file visible on the CD root, named "Arnes Boot Record.img".
- There is a NFO file on the CD root, named "xpsp2ee.nfo", which documents everything bundled with the bootleg.
