Thank you for this post. I think you might need to add one thing, however. I followed your instructions when installing a new fail-over instance, but wasn't able to initially complete the installation, because the hotfix for Windows Server 2003 Filestreams hadn't been applied to the OS. I'd suggest you add that to your instructions.

BTW - The article you should look for regarding the Filestreams hotfix is KB937444.

1) Is there a way to encapsulate all these in 1 setupsql.msi command?

by now, as CU2 is also out, what are the steps to silent deploy a SQL 2008 server?

I now use this process when installing SQL Server 2008 database engine. It works very well with installing clusters as well. I'm curious whether there are any recommendations similar to this regarding installing SQL Server 2005 instances? Link?

Installing SQL Server 2008 on Windows 7

Tyserman474 — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 08:07:12 GMT

I have tried to install it on 7 and every time I try I get an error under the configuation. It tells me that I need at least one administrator account. No matter what account I use or anything that I try I can not get it past that point. I only have one administrator account and password but it won't work. I know I need to install the SP1 to it before I can use SQL, but can't do that until I get it installed.

Can you give me some ideas what I can do to get it installed?

Thanks
