SharePoint 2007 Gotchas: Errors and Guidance

Subtitled: "You mean you really want to install it?"

Before you kick up the bits, go read the aptly titled "Please read this before installing Beta 2" post from the product team, which includes links to known issues and guidance for the installation and configuration of your shiny new toy.

A grat starting point for resolving problems is the SharePoint Community Page, which was recently refreshed to provide way more information than before. 'Attaboys will be duly distributed to all involved.

If your question is unanswered online then the Office Newsgroups are your best bet to make your issue known. Please do a cursory search online with your favourite search engine before heading to the newsgroups -- pasting the error message inside quotation marks is the best start -- and if you use the newsgroups please go to the group most appropriate to the issue (SPS/WSS and dev/admin). Note that there are/will be beta-specific newsgroups as well, I'll provide links as soon as they're available.
