When SP1 is released, download that administrative EXE file from the Microsoft download
site.

After you download the EXE (and I can imagine it being pretty large), execute the EXE file
with the /? (help) switch parameter. It will then show all the available switch parameters.
One will be for slipstreaming the service pack into the installation files.

Example from WinXP which assumes the WinXP installation files exist on the "C:" drive as;
c:\i386

WinXP-SP2.exe -u -s:c:\

I don't think these two ways is what I thought I could do.
I wanted to copy my RTM to a temp directory than somehow add the SP1 files to update it
do whatever other steps are necessary.
then copy the ISO image to a DVD.

That's exactly what can be done. First you copy the installation files form the
distribution DVD(if they aren't there alfready) then you slipstream the installation files
and subsequently burn a new DVD.

This is what I have done for Win2K and WinXP and I doubt there would be a difference with
Vista.

Hi David,
Please excuse me for being stupid on this but from what I read in the other post you have to install a new RTM on a
separate partition then put in the SP1. I guess this also requires a dual boot?
I don't have the space to do that and it's confusing at least for me.
Don't even know what reverse-integration is?

The first step in this is:

>Install Vista RTM to a secondary partition (not the main boot partition). The primary reason for this is one doesn’t want all the boot associated files of that computer related to BCD and boot.ini being part of the final image.[/color]


[url]http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/09/05/slipstream-windows-vista-sp1-into-dvd-iso-image-by-reverse-integration/[/url]

I though I could copy the whole DVD to a temp folder then put the SP1 files in to update it?
No?
Are you saying that I just have to copy the installation files and NOT the whole DVD?
Where are they?

Then somehow make a ISO image to put on a DVD.

I guess I have to wait till there is a link to show how to do this!

Maybe they mean COPY NOT INSTALL?

Forget About Windows Vista Service Pack One Beta, And Convert Over To Open
Source Linux Ubuntu 7.10 Release To Web, Just FYI. It Works Much Better Than
both Windows Vista Release To Manufacturing And Service Pack One Beta
Combined, Also Just FYI.

I have been hearing a lot about that lately. How much is it?
The only down fall is you can't run Office on it right?
Can you use it a Virtual PC?

It's not as easy as with XP, due to Vista using image-based installation.
But you could obtain an Anytime Upgrade disc once it's available with SP1
integrated, this can be used to clean install with.

Brian,
That sounds much better for me to do. But won't I have to pay for a new license?

No, there is a way of getting an Anytime disc without paying for a licence.

[url]http://www.microsoft.com/uk/windows/products/windowsvista/buyorupgrade/windowsanytimeupgrade/overview.mspx[/url]

You basically choose a licence to 'purchase', select that you want an
Upgrade disc, then delete the licence from your basket so that only the disc
remains. It's free apart from shipping costs.
