Are there instructions for installing SharePoint 2010 Beta 2 with SQL 2008 R2? I notice that none of the installation resources thus far describe using R2.

(At the time of writing R2 is at November CTP and contains Geneva components.)

I've installed successfully on SQL R2. Not hotfixes etc needed it just worked, but make sure you have the up to date CTP.

FYI...Chris Quick over at EndUserSharePoint.com is doing a live blogging session this morning installing SharePoint 2010 beta. He might be using SQL 2008 R2 for the database.
