No, that approach will not work. The SP 2 as used by Sus
and WU is significantly different from the CD distribution
or the full network download, and, the Sus server requires
the extra packaging that provides the detection rules.
About you only choice is to use a network attached Sus
and then move the content to the other using the method
discussed in the Sus deployment paper.
