Using Autopatcher to slipstream hotfixes?

Autopatcher does a great job on installed systems. Its kept my Winxp sp2 up to date.
Is it possible to use Autopatcher to slipstream hotfixes directly into a Winxp install? That way the source would be prepatched before i install it.

Although you can put the updates in manually, AP does not help you do so. Just do a Google search for adding hotfixes to a XP installation disk and you should find a ton of results.

At the risk of resurrecting a topic which will be never-ending, you should note that RyanVM (and others) have a different philosophy from AutoPatcher as to both when Windows is patched and also what patches or updates are actually included in the update process.
If you've never encountered RyanVM before, the best starting page for a quick overview (and a complete list of patches) is RyanVM's Windows XP Post-SP2 Update Pack
Last RyanVM update was in early summer -- next looks like being not until Christmas -- because the author is actually too busy doing real work in the real world for the moment!
