I have encountered the following MCSE question. I hope you
can provide answer and a bit detailed explanation.

MCSE Question:
You want to install Windows 2000 Professional and a
service pack on 50 new computers in the shortest possible.
What should you do? (Choose all that apply)

a. Copy the Windows 2000 source files and the service pack
to a shared directory
b. Copy the Windows 2000 source files to a shared
directory. Copy the service pack to a separate shared
directory.
c. Run UPDATE.EXE
d. Run UPDATE.EXE with the /slip switch

The answer would be d. The reason is if download the full
service pack and extract it there will be a update.exe
with in it. You run the update.exe /s command and then
you can slipstream the Sp to your shared cd image folder.
Then you install the computers off of the network.They
made that question real obscure. Gotta love their
language.

You're right there, I've been rolling out integrated builds for the last
six months, and I've never heard of the "/slip" switch! Obviously I know
about "/s". At least I know what it stands for now:)
