Sharepoint server 2010 RTM was lauched 2 days before.

Here is my setup experience (presented through a small number of snapshots) of this new product in a VirtualBox environment.

To download VirtualBox : VirtualBox

The Microsoft Sharepoint 2010 Technet documentation : Technet Doc


Start with the prerequisites.

The list of prerequisites is as follow :

Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Native Client

Hotfix for Microsoft Windows (KB976462)

Windows Identity Foundation (KB974405)

Microsoft Sync Framework Runtime v1.0 (x64)

Microsoft Chart Controls for Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Analysis Services ADOMD.NET)

Microsoft Server Speech Platform Runtime (x64)

SQL 2008 R2 Reporting Services SharePoint 2010 Add-in


I ran it 2 times to be right (there was a download error on the Microsoft Server Speech Platform Runtime the 1st time).


Install the Sharepoint Server.

Because I'm not in a domain and want just evaluate the product, I choose the Standalone mode.
