http://msmvps.com/blogs/bill/archive/2008/05/17/the-trials-and-tribulations-of-installing-vs-2008-sp1.aspxI wasn&#39;t going to install VS 2008 SP1 Beta on my main development machine until I read a MSDN blog that said the final SP1 will install over the top of it. So I figure there&#39;s more good in getting feedback into the system now, than waiting.

Went thru the entire process, last setup dialog and HTML log fie reported success, but the DLLs/templates for Entity Framework and ADO.NET Data Services were missing. Appears to be no way to fix.</p> <p>See <a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://oakleafblog.blogspot.com/2008/05/failed-vs-2008-sp1-beta-installation.html">oakleafblog.blogspot.com/.../failed-vs-2008-sp1-beta-installation.html</a> for the gory details.</p> <p>Cheers,</p> <p>--rj</p> <p>P.S.
