Slipstreaming SP2 on XP SELECT CD

[Lars-Erik Østerud]

At work I have a XP SELECT CD with plain XP Pro (a CD for our company,
one that doen't need product activation, only a key when installing).

I want to make a CD with SP2 slipstreamed into (to install a new PC).

I copy the CD to a folder, apply XP SP2 with the /integrate switch (as
mentioned in several articles) to patch the CD files (making I install
CD that installs SP2 straight away). But I only get an error from the
SP2 installer that some files required for the upgrade is missing :-(

Isn't it possible to slipstream SP2 to a SELECT CD, or what is wrong?

Either one of the following utilities makes slipstreaming
(integrating) SP2 into Windows XP a breeze:
