Well my first install of the Team Foundation Server Release Candidate has gone smoothly and I must say the install is getting quite a bit faster than in the past. The need to apply two hotfixes during the installation (fixes for NET 2.0 & SQL)  for is a new step but one that is well covered in Rob Caron’s installation guide for RC.

My next step is an upgrade of a live dual server installation. This should be quite a bit more challenging. Etienne’s already had the experience and notes one small ommission from the upgrade manual. Read his blog post for the details.
