MUCH easier way to do this: Comment by chibisuke — February 22, 2011 @ 7:19 am the simple way: on command line: expand -f:* g:\msu\amd64fre_FRMRSATX_MSU.msu rsat pkgmgr.exe /n:g:\msu\rsat\Windows6.1-KB958830-x64.xml replace path with any path you like, make sure “rsat” subdirectory exists (g:\msu\rsat\ in the example) after executing the pkgmgr command it will take a few minutes without anything – no progressbar or anything – just nothing. After a few minutes (10 – 15 minutes) you’re prompted to reboot. Do so. Then go so control panel -> windows functions and add install the remote admin stuff you want to use. Note: also works for windows 7 home premium. Found here: http://4sysops.com/archives/install-rsat-on-windows-7-sp1/
