I'm having a hard time getting the Workflow Beta 2 software installed
correctly. I've tried several times on two different machines with no
luck. This is what I installed and the order:

1) WinFX RC
2) Visual Studio 2005 (full release version 8.0.50727.42)
3) Windows SDK
4) Development Tools for WinFX
5) VS 2005 Extensions for Windows Workflow Foundation

Number 5 is the one that is giving me problems. When I run it, it
lauches a maintenance installation program for the SDK, and there are
no additional options for installing the 2005 extensions. Does that
mean it thinks I don't have VS 2005 installed? It seems like it would
display an error message if it couldn't detect my 2005 installation.
This is really irking me and any help would be appreciated.

These are the installation instructions I was following:

Thanks.
