During the slipstream process, i noticed that the SP2 installer automatically adds a cmpnents folder at the root where the i386 folder is placed as well. i was wondering, particularly at the DotNet framework installer thats created under the cmpnents folder, is this any different than the DotNet framework 1.1 that was downloadable for SP1 then?

i was planning on slipstreaming dotnet framework, journal viewer and the high-mat cdrom extension (all recommended updates) to the xpsp2 cd. i was wondering if there were ways to use the generated dotnet framework installer made by SP2 installer on an unattended mode, as well as the other recommended updates i mentioned? thanks.

i pressume, ill be using svpack.inf with this.

I added the .NET Framework using the methods outlined here:

The SP2 one is no different than the downloadable 1.1 framework. As far as I know you can't access that folder unattended.

wow, thanks for the link!
