I figured out how to get this to work. If you have multiple MSP files, none
of them can reside in the Updates folder.
Apparently, if any MSP files are in the Updates folder, setup looks for the
most recently updated one and uses it, regardless of what you have specified
with the /adminfile switch.
I moved my MSP files to the root of the install directory and both of them
work fine now.
