Incorrect Statement About Windows 2000 Service Pack On page 624,Change: "If, after applying the service pack, you add any services or drivers to the local installation, you must reapply the service pack. To avoid manual service pack reapplication, type update -s: distribution_folder (where distribution_folder is the location containing the operating system files) to slipstream a distribution point. Then use the distribution point rather than the Windows 2000 Professional installation CD-ROM to add services or drivers to the local installation."To:"In earlier versions of Windows, if you applied a service pack to your computer, each time you changed the system state by adding or removing components, you had to reapply any service packs. Windows 2000 automatically recognizes that a service pack has been applied to the system and which files have been replaced or updated. Whenever you add or remove components from a computer running Windows 2000, the system copies the required files from either the Windows 2000 installation files or from the service pack install location, so you don't have to reapply the service pack." |
