Slashdot | Windows XP Update Library On a CD
KrispyKofta sends us to APC Magazine for a writeup on Project Dakota,
a
one-man effort to provide all Windows XP SP2 updates on one
downloadable
CD. It's poor man's XP SP3, but even when SP3 is out, the project will
continue to offer a CD that will install all patches offline. "When
was
the last time you installed a fresh copy of Windows XP SP2? The
process is
still straightforward and relatively quick... but then you think 'I'll
just make sure the patches are up to date,' and proceed to stare in
horror
at the 100+ security updates and critical fixes that Windows Update or
WSUS demands you install. And it takes forever. A better option which
we've just discovered is the innovative work of Alek Patsouris... it's
a
self-contained boot CD which contains all the necessary updates to
automatically patch a Windows XP SP2 system with all the patches
available
at the CD's build time."
