How to start debugging a PowerPivot for SharePoint installation issue
A number of people have had issues with PowerPivot installation failures in CTP3. Hopefully, we have resolved all of these for RTM, but I can tell you that setup is still a bit tricky. To give you something of an understanding, the “New Farm” installation option is responsible for getting your machine up and running with as few steps from you as possible. It installs SQL Relational Engine & AS, then configures SharePoint using the newly installed Relational Engine, then configures AS integration with SharePoint.
