SharePoint 2010 Beta 2 with SQL 2008 R2

Question

Are there instructions for installing SharePoint 2010 Beta 2 with SQL 2008 R2? I notice that none of the installation resources thus far describe using R2.

(At the time of writing R2 is at November CTP and contains Geneva components.)

Answer 1

I've installed successfully on SQL R2. Not hotfixes etc needed it just worked, but make sure you have the up to date CTP.

Answer 2

FYI...Chris Quick over at EndUserSharePoint.com is doing a live blogging session this morning installing SharePoint 2010 beta. He might be using SQL 2008 R2 for the database.

Andreas Glaser has written a full multi-part walkthrough on his blog here. Thanks Andreas!!
