TMG 2010 RC fails to install due to Windows SP not installed
The preparation tool reports that the "required windows server 2008 service pack" is not installed and stops the installation. But, the server has SP 1 installed.
Winver reports that the server is running Version 6.0 (Build 6001: Service Pack 1). The hardware is an Intel 64 bit dual quad core that is running hyper-v.
In addition to SP 1 the Server Window Updates are competely up to date. Can anyone tell me what might be going wrong with the prep tool step?

- Well, although the TMG deployment guide's system requirements explicitly says that Windows Server 2008 SP2 is not a requirement, it must be, because once I had it installed the TMG installed without a problem.
I had initially attempted to use both windows update and the standalone install of SP2 prior to the TMG install. But, it required 3 attempts of downloading the SP2 standalone and a couple of tries at running the readiness tool before the SP2 installed.
Thanks for your help!
