Linux is case sensitive, so you need to:

cp ImgXP /XP

Did you create /XP in the partitioning phase as FAT32?  What kind of
image is ImgXP?  Normally you would have to use dd to copy the image
block by block instead of just using copy.  cp ImgXP /XP will copy the
image file to /XP, not write the image to the partition.  You probably
want `dd if=ImgXP of=/dev/hda1`.
