Hi
I have a sql server 2008 r2 std. ed. box with only default instance on it.
It is patched to build 4297 (sp2 cu10).
Normally I create an extra named instance when installing the box - but not this time.
Now I need to add an extra named instance on this SQL, which is allready in production.
Will it require a reeboot ?
What about patching ?
Will I have to reapply SP2 and then reapply CU10 ? and when doing so - should I only select the new Instance ?

it might require one before you run the installer if you have a pending reboot.
When installing the new instance it's unlikely to require a reboot afterwards.

Yes, you will need to apply the SP and\or CU to the new instance

Hi,
to avoid doing the CU you could try slipstreaming the installation
