uninstall hotfix via recovery console howto?


hi,

i'm testing different emergency recovery scenarios our servers running windows 2008 r2 sp1 x64.

the test not specific hotfix i'm mentioning here, meant to be used as sample ;-).

one test the worst case scenario f.ex.:

1) windows bluescreen, won't boot after hotfix installation

2) how uninstall a hotfix f.ex. kb967351 ?

here tried , failed:

a) boot windows dvd or booting via f8 recovery console or

b) start recovery console.

c) run:

pkgmgr /up:package_for_kb967351~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.2.0

(p.s. kb publickeytoken, architecture , version 100% correct! ;-)

and second method with wuau.exe:

wusa /uninstall /kb:967351

didier
