I don't know if you've heard:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2390706 
"Windows SteadyState will be phased out effective December 31, 2010. Microsoft 
will no longer support Windows SteadyState after June 30, 2011."

While I know it doesn't address the issue you may want to look to see if the 
problem is worth resolving

Subject: [wpkg-users] WPKG and SteadyState

I have searched through the archives and found one thread relating to 
the use of WPKG with Windows SteadyState ( 
http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/2009-January/004261.html ). I 
am trying to utilize these two programs together to provide updates to 
our public access computers.

I tried to use a custom script in SteadyState to call WPKG but it does 
not run as a credentialed user (SteadyState runs the custom script 
before Windows logon). I have now tried installing the client, setting 
the service to run manually and starting the service manually through 
the custom script. This solution will work if I institute a logon delay 
but this causes the full delay anytime Windows restarts.

One thing mentioned in the thread above is to force SteadyState to 
commit the changes post execution of WPKG. This seems a little more 
involved than calling WPKG through SteadyState. Has anyone out there 
successfully combined WPKG with the SteadyState disk protection?

Thank you,
