[...] Back in January at the CES 2008 when Microsoft first showed off the Power Pack 1 among the mentioned features was the ability to backup the backup database (wow, this sounds weird…). This was later cut from the product and is therefore not available in the release version of PP1 that is being pushed out to users via Automatic Updates starting from today. [...]

I have installed the english version of power pack 1, but I would like to install the norwegian version. Is that possible? Can I just uninstall and windows update will give me the correct version automatically? Thanks.

endeavour_uk – it shouldn’t break anything, but if you have the HP update add-ins installed, you’ll find it takes a little longer for PP1 to install and storage to balance post-update.

If you have the Beta version installed, you will need to ensure you have the ‘Show Updates’ box ticked in the Add/Remove Programs applet.

“If you’ve been running a beta version of Power Pack 1, get ready for the final release by uninstalling your beta version via Add/Remove programs in the home server’s Control Panel.”

What specifically need uninstalling? There is no beta version listed in my Add/Remove programs list.

Thanks,
AP

Given some of the comments on the HP update for HPMSS about the sequence of loading, should I expect this to break things?
