Slipstream Service Packs in a Dynamics GP Client Install
Posted Monday, February 15th, 2010

Microsoft Dynamics GP offers a way to incorporate service packs into the Dynamics GP 10 client installation package. To do this:
1) Navigate out to your client installation package and find the Updates folder. This is the client install package that can be created during initial install to simply future client setup
2) Delete any msp file in the Updates folder and copy the latest service pack in.
3) The next time you install the client it will include the service pack. It’s that easy!!
Note that the service pack needs to have been applied to the server before adding clients with the same service pack level.

Rob,
This will only work if you created your installation template with the FP1 or later DVD/Installion disk.
The initial release CD did not have the updates folder.
