I was getting an error installing Exchange 2010 rollups later than rollup 4 on a single terminal server, this server had just management tools installed.
I was getting error 1603 which is pretty generic. Running the install again with /lxv* option I noticed errors like the following in the log file:
Property(S): WARNING_MESSAGE_DOTNET = has
determined that a successful installation of this package may require
installation of a missing .NET Framework hotfix. Some Microsoft Exchange
services may not restart after the installation has
completed. For more information about how to resolve this problem,

Also many examples containing "modified sequence value … but did not patch" for what looked like every item in the log fle.
