Slipstream windows updates into Windows 7 SP1 media

Its impractical to deploy new Windows 7 machines today and having to run 130(!!) updates for hours afterwards..
So why not update the Installation media with the latest updates?

Here is how i did it anyway..

Download “Windows Update Downloader” from here: http://www.windowsupdatesdownloader.com/ProgramFiles.aspx
and get the corresponding updatelist from here: http://www.windowsupdatesdownloader.com/UpdateLists.aspx

Install and download all the update files to D:\temp\W7\WU

Delete (or unselect from download) the update named KB2533552 – it cannot be offline integrated and needs to be installed after installed (it will fail if not)

Then delete (or unselect from download) the update named KB2506143, it will make the install fail.

Extract the W7 iso to D:\temp\W7\ISO with f.ex 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.org)

Create a a folder for mount point: D:\temp\W7\mount

Start a elevated command prompt and run this:

dism /Mount-Wim /WimFile:D:\temp\W7\ISO\sources\install.wim /index:1 /mountdir:D:\temp\W7\mount
dism /image:D:\temp\W7\mount /add-package /packagepath:D:\temp\W7\WU
dism /Unmount-Wim /MountDir:D:\temp\W7\mount /commit

Now you can use the source from the ISO folder to f.ex. create a USB install media or create a new ISO with it and boot from CD.
