Integrated XP SP2 install over SP1?

[Brian Wescombe]

I've made a folder on my HDD containing XP Pro integrated with SP2. Can I
safely run Windows Setup from this folder and upgrade my existing
installation (XP Pro SP1) without causing any problems?

SP2 is not yet released. If you are on the Public Preview, you should post
in the appropriate newsgroups. If you are a registered beta tester, you
should post in the beta newsgroups to which you would have been invited -
and given the appropriate logon and password.
