I've read on msexchange.org that I should apply service packs before finishing the installation of sbs2003.

so what is the proper sequence of installing the service packs and running windows updates?

install the basic os, then quit setup before it goes into sbs section.
download and install windows 2003 sbs sp1 (or is it just called w2003 sp1?)
download and install windows 2003 sbs sp2 (same questions as to the name?)
apply windows updates?
install sbs portion
install exchange service pack 1
install exchange service pack 2

- any other tips?

Did you ever get an answer? Not here I see, but somewhere else? I inherited one of these in a small business (duh) and it has not been maintained well... so I'm building a replacement for it... total from scratch, and I need the same question answered.
