Use Snapshot. It's in the ZEN package and is probably installed with it per default. Make sure that there are no registry issues or whatever. It functions just like i.e Intel LANDesk Package Builder, and it makes you a nice AOT file (or, if you have ZEN 3, an exe file if you want). Then just make a NAL object of the finished SnapShot and put it in the NDS somewhere.
