If I install a copy of XP home from a disk that includes SP2, will I
be able to remove SP2 later? I understand that the Psion wavefinder
doesn't work with SP2, but the installation disk I have comes with SP2
as standard.

If you install XP from a slipstreamed (XP + SP2) CD, then uninstallation =
of SP2 is not possible.
