How to create an installable layout for the final release of the .NET Framework 3.5

Hello Aaaron,

that is nice to know.

But what I am missing is a complete download for .NET 3.0 SP1.

We are using .NET 3.0 on XPE (Embedded Systems without Internet connection ) In order to service those systems a download file is needed.

Do you if this is planned ?

One thing I would like to suggest to MS is to keep IA64 out of these installers. x64 is much much more common and even home users today have an x64 processor. But IA64 is a special rare architecture that is much much less in use. Why increase size, bloat and footprint by bundling IA64 everywhere? Even for Visual Studio 2005 and 2008, I noticed that although I'd unselected the IA64 files in setup, it installed the IA64 debug symbols and some more IA64 components (Crystal reports IA64 setup etc) which I'll never ever touch.

Hi Martin - I'm not sure if this is planned or not. In the meantime, you can extract the 3.0 SP1 bits out of the 3.5 package. I will also create a blog post soon that describes how to assemble a 3.0 SP1 package using the standalone web download bootstrapper located at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=EC2CA85D-B255-4425-9E65-1E88A0BDB72A.

Hi Someone - This combined installer for the .NET Framework 3.5 was not designed to optimize for size. The web download bootstrapper located at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=333325FD-AE52-4E35-B531-508D977D32A6 will install only the components needed on the system it is run on.

Yes but that web download bootstrapper isn't exactly helpful for deployment purposes when you don't have always on internet connections.

Hi Someone - Yes, that is correct. The web download bootstrapper may require Internet connectivity. If you are looking to minimize the size of the .NET Framework 3.5 setup package and also not require Internet connectivity, then you can use some of the suggestions that I listed above in the main text of this blog post (such as not carrying the ia64/x64 payload, not carrying Windows Vista payload, not carrying downlevel OS payload, etc)

Is it possible to generate a log from dotnetfx35setup.exe? tried /l*v <log file> no joy. Any suggestions?

re: How to create an installable layout for the final release of the .NET Framework 3.5

Hi GHardie - As I described in the blog post at http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2008/02/27/7927123.aspx, the .NET Framework 3.5 setup creates its own set of verbose logs by default, so there is no need to pass any additional logging switches or set any of the standard Windows Installer logging policies.

You should be able to find the logs from this setup by using the list at http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2007/07/31/4156781.aspx.

Hopefully this helps.
