Ignore me, I am a dope.

I completely misread this post :) Slipstreaming is only possible with a Windows 2003 disc and some trickery.

We really do need a SBS2003 Media kit with SP2 implemented.

I'll re-iterate what I posted <a href="chrisara.blogspot.com/.../a>.

If you install a service pack on SBS, don't ever, ever perform a Repair install or an over-the-top install using the install media and expect your system to boot.

If you install a service pack, your repair options are Directory Services Restore Mode boot then restore from backup, complete minimal re-install from scratch then apply SP then restore from backup in DSRM, or re-image from an image based backup.

This is the downside for not being able to slipstream the SP with Disk 1.
