I found the easiest way is to install Vista install SP1 and all the other
updates and then make a back up of that using Acronis 11 home. You can
always start from that point or do backups as you go and get comfortable
with Vista.
YMMV but that is what I did and it saved me from having to start from
scratch.

That would be create a new installation DVD with the Service Pack
integrated into it, alleviating the need to install the service pack
separately, after installing the OS. This used to be possible with
Win2K and WinXP, but the new format of Vista's installation DVD doesn't
permit it.

The word "slipstreaming" was originally used to refer to the practice
of many software manufacturers of including updates to their product
on the distribution CD without any real announcement of what they were
doing or differentiation of the various kind of CDs. It was always a
disparaging term because it was poor practice. It was used as a way
for the manufacturer not to have to print a different box, manual,
etc. for the updated version, and to sell older stock that didn't
appear to be outdated, but actually was. That saved them money, but it
left the customer unable to tell whether he was buying the new version
or the old.
Somewhere along the line, people started creating their own updated
versions of some software, by merging the update files with the
original CD. Someone got the bright idea to call it by the same name
"slipstreaming," without realizing that the name was originally used
in a disparaging way.
The term stuck. I dislike the use of the word this way, but the
original meaning has been lost, so I long ago gave up trying to fight
it. Since everybody now uses it simply to mean a version with the
upgrade incorporated in it, I reluctantly go along.

Another good example of new synonymous words that have been created lately:
if you say IDIOT or FRANK, its the same thing
or VISTA and CRAP , its the same thing

Whats not vista frank-o-dork?
IM SLAPING YOU WITH A ROTTEN FISH, (after that the fish will smell worse
than it did)
Nice to see that you are still dumb as before.
All my insults are correct then! Keep on provin them!
From that site (since you are afraid of clicking). Its a program that lets
you slipstream vista-tard.
vLite 1.1.6 beta - SP Slipstream
2008.03.28 by nuhi
Oho, another version. Service Pack Slipstream support. Consider that feature
a true beta test.
vLite had a hidden Slipstream page since the service pack betas so this was
not so hard to adjust. You can see it by running older vLite with /sptest
switch.
However it stopped working on the final SP1 when MS locked it down.
So this version should work again. Try this latest one and let me know of
any issues with the Slipstream.
Of course it is always better to either capture or get a preintegrated DVD
because MS said that integrating is not recommended before SP2 is out.
Important notes:
- slipstreaming x64 SP from x86 host is not supported, you need x64 host
- make sure that you have at least 4GB free at the partition where your temp
folder is located (check in Options)
- SP1 supports only these 5 langauges for now: English (US), French, German,
Japanese, or Spanish (Traditional).
