RFC - What should be on a Windows 2000 Pro Update Security Patch CDROM

[Drydem]

I'm building a Windows 2000 Pro Update Security Patch CDROM
that allows updating a Windows 2000 Pro system that does not
have internet access or which can be used to speed updating
Windows 2000 Pro system which only have dial up access via
a CDROM. Currently this CDROM has no automated updating
features so each service pack and upgrade module must be
installed manually (and in the proper sequence) so this
CDROM that I am creating is only for a trained techician.
I also am building a Windows XP Upgrade Security Patch CDROM
too. The major difference between the Windows 2000 and XP Upgrade
CDROM is the additional folders for MovieMaker 2 and the
InstallationBootDiskCreator Utilities. I am reqesting
comments as to what should be included on this CDROM.
My CDROM prototype is divided into the following categories.


(01) Windows 2000 Pro Documentation
a) a excel spreadsheet listing all the CDROM contents.
b) word documentation covering service packs, security patches,
functional updates, upgrades. Documentations for each upgrade
module is reviewed from Microsoft's website and data is then
is condensed and sorted by the Knowledge Base number.
(02) Windows 2000 Pro Service Packs
(03) Windows 2000 Pro Security Hotfixes/Patches
(04) Windows 2000 Pro functional fixes/upgrades
(05) Internet Explorer 6
1) installation
2) service packs
3) security patches
4) functional upgrades/fixes
(06) Windows Media Player 9
1) installation
2) security patches
3) functional upgrades/fixes
(07) DirectX
1) installation
2) security patches
(08) Viewers for documentation - to view CDROM documentation.
1) Word Viewer
2) excel Viewer
3) powerpoint Viewer
(09) Network tools
(10) Workstation tools
