How to create a slipstreamed SharePoint Server 2010 SP1 install

  • Article

Now that service pack 1 for SharePoint 2010 is there you might want to integrate it also into the installation process of a new environment. As it is recommended for a SharePoint Server installation to install the SharePoint Foundation SP1 and the SharePoint Server SP1 bits (https://sharepoint.microsoft.com/blog/Pages/BlogPost.aspx?pID=984 ) you should integrate both of them into your installation.

Here’s you do that:

Download the SharePoint Foundation SP1 bits (https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2460058 ) and extract the files from this package by running:
sharepointfoundation2010sp1-kb2460058-x64-fullfile-en-us.exe /extract:<some directory>

Download the SharePoint Server SP1 bits (https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2460045 ) and extract the files from this package by running:
officeserver2010sp1-kb2460045-x64-fullfile-en-us.exe /extract:<some directory>

And finally copy all of these extracted files into the “\Updates” folder of your SharePoint Server 2010 RTM bits.

Now you can start the installation and once you’re finished you should be able to see version number: 14.0.6029.1000 on Central Administration which indicates that service pack 1 is installed.
