1) No. Simply install the service pack immediately after the server install. Note that you may run into "this file is newer"... Prompts. Just select "keep". Somehow, my memory says that there are about 40 of them, but that could be completely off base. 2) Slipstreaming of Exchange service packs is not supported. (And I've tried - I could never get it to work even in testing.) -----Original Message----- From: Harondel J. Sibble [mailto:exchangelist@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, January 30, 2006 9:40 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] slipstream exchange service packs http://www.MSExchange.org/ Couple of questions on switching from an Exchange Trial Version to the full version 1) If the trial version is at SP2 level but the full version cd is at the SP1 or no SP level, will this cause any problems when I go to do the reinstall to upgrade to the non trial version? 2) If the service pack level is an issue, is there a way to Slipstream the original version to the SP2 level? I've tried googling, but that only comes up with slipstreaming of the OS. -- Harondel J.
