Web Platform Installer 2.0 Beta on Windows Home Server

Web Platform Installer I’ve been thinking of setting up ASP.NET MVC 1.0 on my WHS and also start learning some Silverlight stuff, so I took a risk, went to the Microsoft Web Platform Installer page and clicked on the Beta 2.0 link. Downloaded the installer, marked ASP.NET MVC and the most necessary options and let it go. Should work, right?

It had to reboot once to get Windows Installer 4.5 in, but it continued to chew on and after a few minutes:

Done!

Yay! Now I just have to get an MVC test application on there somehow… brb.
