If I run it up with -win2k-hack then windowsupdate works fine..
Here is what I did though (although variants have worked)

Install win2k-sp4
run windowsupdate and ignore the warning about ie6, let it install the updated windows-update 
component. Reboot, install ie6, reboot, then run windows-update and install all the patches.

All of this with win2k-hack enabled or it won't work.. and the updated win2k-hack from Leo so it 
works with dma..
