Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Installing on Windows Home Server

thanks!

yeah - i guess it's a bit of a stupid question really, seeing as WHS
addins cannot be inplace upgraded, sorry about that. late... friday...
etc.

The tranquil unit having it installed is a bit crappy (amongst other
things). It wasn't until i came here that I knew it was beta. Suppose
they are just a bit too keen!

Ah, that explains why so many WHS peeps are running a beta version
without realizing it.

With 7.4 it has to be uninstalled and reinstalled through the WHS
console for every update.

The 7.3 versions don't have a console add-in, and those could be
installed right on top of the previous version. Honestly, it was a lot
faster that way--my WHS console opens so slooowwwly.

You have no choice. You need to uninstall before installing a new
build.

I'm not sure if it is possible to do an in-place install, seeing as how
SBS is a running process.

I haven't yet seen a WHS add-in that doesn't require uninstalling
first. It must be difficult.

[SlimDevices: Beta] Installing on Windows Home Server

2009-08-28 Thread harbars

Hi folks,

I have a WHS, which includes build 7.4 - 25724, pre-installed by
Tranquil PC (the "manufacturer") of the WHS.

Can I install later versions over this, or should I uninstall this and
start with a "clean" install?

many thanks!

s.
