Are the betas/test releases available for D/L somewhere?
tech269

I have a simler problem like post from (tech269 Posted Oct 17 2006, 10:59 AM)

That kb924191 will not take ?

I will try to attach zip of log

I think that I know what is wrong for you:

Check the date/version of the update you have for KB924191.

There were 2 versions released close together.
The newest update is from October 19, 2006.

File name: Windows2000-KB924191-v2-x86-ENU.EXE

You can get the newest version here: KB924191

Thankyou tech269 for the reply

I will have a closer look at it and download the newer version and try it again

Very much appreciated

As I download all update to a machine when they come out and don’t go back looking at times or dates

The only reason that I noticed the date is that I was updating another PC.
Normally I wouldn't have even seen the problem without closer inspection.

(Sometimes, to solve a problem, all that it takes is an extra set of eyes. lol )

Updated list with November fixes.

the_guy

Hi Everyone. I'm pretty much with a similar problem to the one referred by tech269, but my WU is asking me kb924191 ( ok, this one could be because I was missing the v2 version ), kb913191 and 922760 ( the IE cumulative update ). Any ideias on these last 2 ?
I'm using hfslip 60810.

Replying to myself, and to everyone else that may have had the same problem: I updated to the last hfslip available and everythings fine now.

Glad you resolved it using the latest version. Just shows you that updates sometimes help.

List updated with December fixes.

List updated for January 2007 updates.

Hi everyone,

I downloaded the updates according to the initial post regarding the latest post-sp4 updates for windows 2000, however when I try to run them some of them I get the following:

"Windows2000-KBXXXXXX-x86-ENU.EXE is not a valid win32 application."

Out of all of the updates the following yield the same message:

KB901017
KB905749
KB911280-v2
KB917008
KB917537
KB920213
KB923191
KB923689
and rootsupd.exe

Why does this happen and how do I over come that? Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers,
Nelson

Compare the md5 hashes for those fixes to the list posted in this forum.

anyone can help me to give latest patch & hot fix list ( all) for slip strem win2ksp4 by HF-SLIP including IE 6 slipstream

it will be better pls give details list of HFSLIP folder structure & file list like TECH269 posted.


pls help...

I have a suggestion. Instead of deleting obsolete entries from the list, cross off the obsolete entries and add a note (enclosed in parentheses) indicating what newer patch it is superseded by. That would make it much easier for us to keep track of the changes.

For example:

June 2005:
896358 - MS05-026: A vulnerability in HTML Help could allow remote code execution
896422 - MS05-027: Vulnerability in Server Message Block could allow remote code
(Replaced by ?????? , released ??/200?)
890046 - MS05-032: A vulnerability in Microsoft Agent could allow spoofing
(Replaced by 920213/MS06-068, released 11/2006)

Phil

P.S. Why was 896422 removed? I could not find an update that supersedes it.

I believe keeping the list like that would make it very hard to read and much too bloated. I'm sure that is the reason why it has never been done.

the_guy always keeps a changelog of what he does in his update lists. It's at the top of the first post. Maybe that will help?

KB896422 is replaced by a combination of KB923414 and KB891861.

I will not be striking thru obsolete updates as it is too confusing for me.

List updated with February 2007 updates.

Hello,

I am a total newbie in this type of stuff. Excuse me if I ask a stupid question. I tried to see if the topic of my interest was addressed elsewhere in this thread but could not find an anwser. Here it is:

I have and nLited version of 2000Pro update pack 4 and the such (including recommanded updates listed here).

Windowsupdate.62nds.com still bugs me with many updates, the first of which "MS05-018: Vulnerabilities in Windows Kernel Could Allow Elevation of Privilege and Denial of Service (890859)".

Is this a real issue and why it is not mentionned here? Anything else I should know on this topic?

Thanks,

Caillus

Although it's not the right thread, I'll answer this. When visiting WU or the website you mention, various files are checked for revisions and even if they exist. So with removing components with NLITE you'll be missing components causing some flags to be raised. You're best bet would be to slipstream all updates and don't NLITE it. Install the full blown sourcess folder on a VM and check for updates and iron out any issues. If all is OK, then proceed with NLITE on the sourcess folder.

If you want to discuss this further, please open a new thread.

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...n/ms07-apr.mspx

For Win2K:

MS07-017 was released on 04/03 (Tomcat76 has already addressed this on his dynamic page) - KB925902 replaces KB896424 and KB91219

MS07-020 - KB932168 replaces nothing - added HF.

MS07-021 - KB930178 replaces nothing - added HF.

MS07-022 - KB931784 replaces KB920958.


Don't know if MS07-017/KB925902 was tested yet. 020, 021, and 022 are brand spanking new.

List updated with April fixes.

the_guy

It looks like KB925902 wasn't tested well enough by Microsoft:

...

KB935843 patches/fixes (but does not replace) MS07-017/KB925902.

Hi guys (and the_guy),

I've posted full instructions over in the nLite forum on how to create a fully up to date unattended Windows 2000 install CD using as a base the "Unofficial Windows 2000 Service Pack 5.1.2195.24 Refresh".

Hopefully this may be of interest to you, if so please leave a comment asking for a blatant, in your face, redirection from the now closed Hotstream forum.

Edit: Updated for May, now with torrent.

Say, did anyone else get weird Windows Update results this month? It tried installing 2 ancient IE6 cumulative updates on me.

Hi Kurt, although HFSLIP is already compatable with the USP, very few here opt to use it, preferring to simply keep the HF folder full... sorta the same thing only easier, more up to date, and it uses original MS binaries.

Well, USP may be a little out of date... but it includes some files from hot fixes that were not publically available. For example: I have a USB CDROM and when installing from it some time I get blue sreen... It appeared that this problem is known and M$ even issued a hot fix for this but it is not publically available. I have an origial box retail Windows 2000 but I don't know how and wher to ask for this fix USP helped me - there are newer USB supporting files in it.

Update for Windows 2000 (KB927891)

Overview
This is a reliability update. This update resolves an issue in the Windows Installer (MSI) that can affect performance during software updates. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer.

Oleg: look for the hotfix share

List updated with June 2007 updates.

the_guy

List updated with July 2007 updates.

the_guy

Go to The Hotfix Share and download KB827675. It's in the upload section until next Sunday, then it will be in the download section in English Windows 2000 fixes.

the_guy

The Hotfix Share contains 31 hotfixes in Windows 2000 section. Those hotfixes are claimed to be not available via Windows Update, some require requesting. Does that mean that one should rather have them all slipstreamed along with the official ones?

Non-public hotfixes are not as well tested as the public ones. You may experience problems installing them.

Also, there may be some which are not supported by HFSLIP (because of an unusual or unknown internal composition, because files need to be renamed, because files need to be embedded in CAB packages existing in your SOURCE which are not yet covered by HFSLIP, or because files need to be copied into a non-standard location on the hard disk during Windows setup).

Test at your own risk

List updated with August updates.

the_guy

@ the_guy:
You've got a hotfix listed under the FDV set as KB937413. It should be KB937143.

@ everyone:
I've done my research on this (both here and elsewhere on the net), and can't find any solid answers, so I'm asking you. For an FDV build of Win2K, do I need *only* the HF's listed in the FDV Fileset section? Or do I also need the ones listed above (sorted by month)? I ask because many HF's in that section are for IE Core issues, etc - which shouldn't really be needed for an FDV build. Help?

EDIT - for clarity

For an FDV build, use the top ones and the FDV section. I will be making an FDV list in the next week or so.

the_guy

Thanks!

EDIT - You mean an FDV List for WUD?

The Root Certificate Security update for july is not for window2000, simply open autoruns and view any windows component or driver and they will all appear as unverified/unsigned. The proper one for windows2000 is still the september 2006 one. (and it will show up in windows update also).

cheers.

For some reason, April update kb947890 refers to kb943055, i.e. instead of 947890 one gets 943055... here

Perhaps it's just me, but looking at your change log is a bit of an eyesore too.

Anyway... I ended up changing it into a table for me to have a better overview.

Just in case you want to have a look at it and maybe even add it to your page in place of the change log that you have now, I've attached it to this forum entry.
