You don't. BOOT.INI does not exist in Vista. What, specifically, are
you trying to accomplish?

I strongly recommend that you download and install VistaBootPRO
from http://www.pro-networks.org. This utility can be installed to both
the Vista and WinXP operating systems, and provides a convenient means
of editing the boot process, as well as simplifying the removal of
either Vista boot process, should you tire of dual-booting.
