Why there is no hotfix downloader in nlite?

[silrocks]

I was just wondering if there was a reason for no hotfix/patches/etc downloader in nlite?

Thanks

Because you should do ALITTLE work? Only you know what hotfixes you need? THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF HOTFIXES that you DON'T NEED.

There's just a wide variety of variables to consider.

hi silrocks! check out this website: http://ryanvm.net/msfn ... there are packs there that contain the hotfixes you need ... there are about 3 major ones there (so you may want to answer this poll: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=89060 ... once you've tried which caters to your needs better) ... these great guys have packed it for everyone's convenience

While looking this issue up, I did find these 2 patch/hotfix getters I guess you would call them.

this one was nice because you download a list of the the updates and pick

while ones to download and where to store them. This seems to work well with nlite. You can also grab exchange patches, etc.

This one is for making an ISO of patches. it makes an ISO and installs and

reboots according to what patches are in the burned ISO. this seems to get the patches when directly from microsoft instead of a list like the 1st one.
