It seems it actually is 1 CD!
Is that correct?
The cd says "Microsoft Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server"
CD does not say any disc numbers , does say Part o. X09-73017.
I have installed Prem before - and that was 5 cd's.

Here is the DIR :
 Volume in drive E is NRMLFPP_EN
 Volume Serial Number is 615E-7516

 Directory of E:\
