I'm waiting for it, but I'm not exactly obsessing It took a while the last time as well. N versions are just harder to get. I'm actually a little surprised we got the multi N versions as fast as we did.
Thank you murphy78. Can I integrate Win 8.1 Update with Win 8.1 Hotfix updates (downloaded from WHD)?
I don't know. That's not my project. I'd suspect he might need to rework things to detect post 2919355 systems since some hotfixes require it.
I downloaded Server 2012 R2 Update 1 and installed Standard Edition on a Hyper-v and activated it with Windows Loader 2.2.2. Worked out fine. Even installed few roles and features to make sure the server manager is working fine without any crash. All worked out fine. Now just waiting for OEM SLP keys for Data Center edition. Das did a wonderful job with Windows Loader. All CR goes to him.
Sorry for asking but is this Windows 8.1 Update 1 and will I be able to install official updates available in future from Windows Update?
Read this to myself and pondered it to think if you were trolling or being serious. I've determined that you are serious. Yes, you can update Windows with the official MSDN isos.
No, seriously, I'm not trolling, this is my first ever experience with Windows 8 and I really don't know much how this works. BTW, thank you very much!
