Trying to chain two SmartUpgrade installs together

I have used SmartUpgrade for years to deploy IBM Notes client upgrades to users in multiple sites.
In one site, I need to use the ‘SUSetRunAsWizard’ facility to build the upgrade packages, since no user has administrative access to their computer.

On this site, I am trying to chain two SmartUpgrade packages together: 9.0.1FP10 & 9.0.1FP10IF2
I’m using the ‘SUSetRunAsWizard’ to prepare the packages, and FP10 is running perfectly (as usual).

I wonder, however, how you’re supposed to bundle up an ‘interim release’ into an install package?
The IF package install procedure doesn’t pause so that I can collect the installation files and package them up like the FP10 installation.

I feel this is something that I should know well by now, but truth is I’ve never packaged up an ‘interim release’ for use with SmartUpgrade before.
I don’t really want to push out FP10 without the associated interim release, so I’m stuck trying to work it out (and can’t find any supporting info online).

Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to offer me some advice!

Subject: Thanks Barry, but the issue is not the inability to chain the installs

My issue revolves around my inability to create an installation package for the ‘interim fix’ package.

Since the installation process doesn’t pause after extracting all of the installation files, I have no way of collecting those files and packaging them up using the ‘SUSetRunAsWizard’ facility.
