Failure to integrate hotfixes

[Super-Magician]

For some reason, I couldn't get the hotfix integration to work successfully.

I used the most recent version of HFSLIP (060107). After successfully installing the HFSLIP'ed XP SP2 on a virtual machine using VMWare, Windows Update proceeded to download all the hotfixes I had supposedly integrated all over again. Although the programs I had put in HFSVPK installed successfully (along with the HighMAT extension), all of the hotfixes failed to integrate in the install. Windows Update also redownloaded the Package Installer (KB898461) and Windows Installer 3.1 (KB893803).

Windows Media Player 10 also did not install properly.

I have used HFSLIP before, but I don't know if it worked on those occasions as I really had never tried the installations.

Should I test the installation using an old-fashioned CD-based install?

Note: I actually ran HFNETCHK after Windows Update had reinstalled the hotfixes, so it may not be of much use.

Thanks for the help, tommyp. I realized this right after I had posted.
