September 8, 200421 yr It looks like they just posted the regular English installation package for 6.0.2. Here is the direct link:Adobe Reader 6.0.2 for Windows
September 8, 200421 yr I got a good link: Clicky clicky ... I am using the 6.0.2—English (Central European) for Windows, 11.8MB
September 8, 200421 yr Well, some people might not want those little "CE" markings on their Reader. But I have to say I'm having a hell of a time installing AdbeRdr602_distrib_enu.exe silently. I've tried extracting and not, I've tried different switches, nothing works right. I'm sure there is a way, I just can't find it. Any thoughts?
September 8, 200421 yr Whats the CE for? I hope it stands for Big ePeen? Foot long... Well, this is the first time im trying that CE version, unattended silently and all that.I did install it as a test on VM, had to get that .msi file etc. but I doubt my first attemp willwork.
September 8, 200421 yr Well, I decided to just make an auotit script for it:; --- Start ---Run("\\server\winxp$\apps\Adobe\AR602\AdbeRdr602_distrib_enu.exe")Sleep(5000)WinWaitActive("Adobe Reader 6.0.2 - Setup")Sleep(5000)Send("{ENTER}")WinWaitActive("Adobe Reader 6.0.2 - Setup")Sleep(500)Send("{ENTER}")WinWaitActive("Adobe Reader 6.0.2 - Setup")Sleep(500)Send("{ENTER}")WinWaitActive("Adobe Reader 6.0.2 - Setup")Sleep(500)Send("{ENTER}")Sleep(40000)WinWaitActive("Adobe Reader 6.0.2 - Setup")Sleep(500)Send("{ENTER}"); --- End ---If anyone has a way to install AdbeRdr602_distrib_enu.exe silently with switches, I'd be very interested.
September 8, 200421 yr If you extract it with WinRAR, you will see this isn't really 6.02. It is really 6.01.msi and 6.02.mst.0x0409.iniAbcpy.iniAdobe Reader 6.0.1.msiData1.cabinstmsia.exeinstmsiw.exeRdr602.mstRdr6020.cabRdr60ENU.itwsetup.exeSetup.ini

If you run setup.exe by itself, you end up with 6.0.1. So I guess "AdbeRdr602_distrib_enu.exe" is 6.0.1 full and 6.0.2 update running together. I'm sure the end result is the same, but it's nice to have one package, and only one Add/Remove entry. i'm kind of anal that way.
September 8, 200421 yr I wonder if an administrative install point would work for slipstreaming the 6.0.2 update...
September 8, 200421 yr Guys, I think I got it. I've got a 16MB (WinRAR compressed) administrative install point with 6.0.2 integrated into it B)
September 8, 200421 yr Could you guys test one of these out for me? They're the same uncompressed, so pick whichever one suits you.EDIT: Links removed.
September 8, 200421 yr The install point worked (I tested it successfully on one of my own computers). I'm going to pack it into an EXE and post a link in awhile.
September 9, 200421 yr The install point worked (I tested it successfully on one of my own computers). I'm going to pack it into an EXE and post a link in awhile.....waiting.... I was trying to hassle around with the CE version but I found out that I have free MB's on the iSO and I could also RAR the install folder too. Basically it means that I can add stuff to it, which is always cool. More stuff is better, much better.
September 9, 200421 yr @RyanVMYou Rule! Again, instructions for the slip-stream please?EDIT:Nevermind - it seems the final 6.0.2 full installer is available - http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/read...distrib_enu.exe (34.7 MB).
