Hi, I have a brand new HP DL385 G1 and I have 2003 Standard R2 discs to install on it.

Using HP SmartStart to boot I then proceed to install using the first W2K3 CD which works perfectly. The server restarts and Windows starts and then asks for the 2nd CD which is for the R2 upgrade. This looks like it's working but then fails and points me to C:\Windows\R2-New-files.log which shows that it failed because it couldn't find the file called \i386\fsrstandard.inf. This file is located in C:\ServicePackFiles\servicepackcache\i386 and the log file even shows that's where it'll look for it.

Any ideas why this isn't finding the file? Has anyone seen this before and got it to work?

Cheers
