SharePoint 2010 Installation and Configuration – Part I

I started testing SharePoint 2010 in my lab.  I took some screenshots and notes during the installation.  I would like to share these findings in this article.   The first part of this article explains the installation details and in the second part, I will include the configuration details. 

Introduction
There are two version of SharePoint Sever 2010. The SharePoint Sever 2010 for Enterprise Client Access and Internet Sites.  You can download the appropriate versions from the following locations:

Pre-requisite:
Keep in mind the following system requirements:

  • SharePoint Server 2010 will be 64-bit only.
  • SharePoint Server 2010 will require 64-bit Windows Server 2008 or 64-bit Windows Server 2008 R2.
  • SharePoint Server 2010 will require 64-bit SQL Server 2008 or 64-bit SQL Server 2005.

If you are using an existing SQL server, make sure the SQL server has the latest updates and service packs.  The following are the minimum supported SQL versions: 

  • SQL 2005: Version # 9.00.4220.00
  • SQL 2008: Version# 10.00.2714.00
