Slipstreaming SQL 2008 with SP2
Though there are lot of articles on how to slipstream a SQL 2008 Setup with a Service Pack for installation. e.g. https://support.microsoft.com/kb/955392/en-us or https://www.bing.com/search?q=SQL+2008+Slipstream I will add another one here with detailed Step by Step instruction.
Use the following steps to create a slipstream merge drop and install SQL 2008 Server with SP2
- Create the slipstreamed media source with the following commands.
'Copy the RTM binary files and all subfolders to E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED
‘To extract the SP2 files run the following commands from a command prompt:
SQLServer2008SP2-KB228506:8-IA64-ENU.exe /x:E:\SQL2008EESP2\ia64
SQLServer2008SP2-KB2285068-x64-ENU.exe /x:E:\SQL2008EESP2\x64
SQLServer2008SP2-KB2285068-x86-ENU.exe /x:E:\SQL2008EESP2\x86
‘Now copy the current setup.exe and setup.rll
copy E:\SQL2008EE\SQL2008EESP2\x86\setup.exe E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED /y
copy E:\SQL2008EE\SQL2008EESP2\x86\setup.rll E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED /y
‘delete files that must not exist:
del E:\SQL2008EE\SQL2008EESP2\ia64\Microsoft.SQL.Chainer.PackageData.dll
del E:\SQL2008EE\SQL2008EESP2\x64\Microsoft.SQL.Chainer.PackageData.dll
del E:\SQL2008EE\SQL2008EESP2\x86\Microsoft.SQL.Chainer.PackageData.dll
‘Create new folder:
Md E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED\pcu\ia64
Md E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED\pcu\x64
Md E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED\pcu\x86
‘copy the sp files:
copy E:\SQL2008EESP2\ia64\ia64\*.* E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED\pcu\ia64 /y
copy E:\SQL2008EESP2\x64\x64\*.* E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED\pcu\x64 /y
copy E:\SQL2008EESP2\x86\x86\*.* E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED\pcu\x86 /y
Change all DefaultSetup.ini files and add PCUSOURCE=.\PCU
The DefaultSetup.ini files are found in each architecture folder (E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED\architecture) and should look like this after editing:
;SQLSERVER2008 Configuration File
[SQLSERVER2008]
PID="xxxxx-xxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx"
PCUSOURCE=".\PCU"
'Now you can run the setup.
Cd E:\SQL2008EE_SLIPPED\
setup.exe
