Just use the 3.5 SP1 w/Family Update package. It will install 2.0 SP2, 3.0 SP2, 3.5 SP1, and the 3 fixes released post 3.5 SP1.
3.0 and 3.5 just extend/build upon the 2.0 CLR. They should have all been 2.x versions, but MS didn't want to release Vista (that came with 3.0) with a .1 version of anything I guess. Make sure you check the requirements for whatever apps you're going to be using. Some of them have a firm requirement for the 1.1 CLR. In that case, install 1.1, 1.1 SP1, then 3.5 SP1 w/Fam Update.
