Patch deployment.

[Pili]

I'm deploying the latest MS patches MS04-028 to the
facility using MSIexec instructions, I updated the
administrative installation first and then the client
installation, overall it works ok, but it reboots after
the installation I'm using the switch /q because I want it
to be transparent to the user, I noticed on the
instructions that if you use /qn it will be silent
installation and will force to shutdown (I'm not using
this, but is rebooting), can you help me with the correct
switch?

To install this update without the user knowing it and prevent the computer
from rebooting when done, use the /qz switch. Silent mode is enabled by
the /q and norestart is enabled by /z. The /n switch causes the package
to install without backing up files being replaced.
