wssv3SP1 install: "This product requires ASP.NET v2.0" error

I thought as the new year approaches I would rebuild one of our test wssv3 virtual machines

using the latest bits available thru my MSDN subscription.

   

I installed Windows 2003 Server R2, with Service Pack 2,

ran Windows Update to get the latest updates

then configured my server to be an Application server,

Click "Enable ASP.NET"

Then tried to install Windows SharePoint Services v3 with Service Pack 1 (slipstream)

   

This installer complained that I didn't have ASP.NET 2.0 installed.

A quick check of IIS Manager, web service extensions and sure enough

ASP.NET v2.0.50727 was listed not there.

   

A quick command:

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Aspnet_regiis.exe -i

installs ASP.NET 2.0 on the machine and then Windows SharePoint Services v3 with Service Pack 1 (slipstream) installed properly.
