BOL for SQL Server 2008 RC0

So you can now download Books On Line for SQL Server 2008 by going to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=19db0b42-a5b2-456f-9c5c-f295cdd58d7a&DisplayLang=en.

 

I started the process and I got an error on installation requiring a new version of Microsoft Installer. I have Vista SPI installed on this system. Yet I still do not have the latest installer. Curious. So further research shows that it needs version 4.5 which was just released on June 5th. You can find this at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942288

It was only 2.8 MB and installed in less than 5 minutes. It supplied a hotfix KB942288,  which of course required a reboot.

 

Get started on this now.  I'll post info about the RC0 later.
