DYI SP4

I have successfully slipstreamed SP3 into XP Home SP2 and created an
installation CD. Since SP3, of course, there have been dozens of updates
especially security. Before XP support dies (next year for SP3?), I'd like to
build another one that incorporates all the updates. Current running system
has been done by MS Updates so I don't have a clear record of what was done
in what order. Where can I find the updates to download and what order to
install them in, and how do I slipstream updates (not just the service pack)?

Alternative: where can I just get the updates and what order to do them in?
With that, I can do what I did with Win98SE some years back - put the
installer and all the updates, with instructions, on one CD (or DVD, as would
probably be needed for XP).

Thanks.

WinXP SP3 entered Extended Support several months ago. Computers running
WinXP SP3 will continue to receive security updates until October 2014 so I
wouldn't bother IIWY.
