Thank Ben, that's great - I was not aware that VPC and VServer could co-exist - that's great, because I've been meaning to play with virtual server for a while now!

Or, if you rather use the command line (or for an unattended installation):

C:\> msiexec.exe /i "Virtual Server 2005 Install.msi" /qn ADDLOCAL=VHDMount

(I have not tested this with the final release)

Hey that's helpful - the Custom method and the CLI. Good know you can add it so easily.

Any plans to provide stuff like this as separate downloads? Will be easier downloading less. (just a suggestion)

Does anyone know if it can be installed on XP Home? Is there some limitation or missing service which stops it (VHDMount) working?

Extracting the installer files is an easy enough task, putting them in the right place and recreating services and registry keys is difficult. But there's no point trying if it simply won't work on Home.
