Whidbey Beta 2 and Windows Vista Beta 1

Published 03 August 05 10:07 PM | russnem

Has anyone out there been successful in installing Whidbey Beta 2 Team Suite on Windows Vista Beta 1? I had an early failure which pretty much ruined it for the rest of the entire installation and was wondering if everyone else out there is in the same boat.

If so, are there any workarounds / solutions?

I could not install fromt he DVD which came with my MSDN, Ihad to download it from MSDN and install from a Network share.

Cheers,

Share your DVD drive and install it from \\machinename\dvdshare. That should work (saw it in some blog post somewhere)

Yup, I cannot install from the Dvd too
Maybe I try the sharing method

This "sharing" method actually worked - mostly.

SQL Express did not install, and a few other components didn't either. Anyone else had these issues?
