Biztalk install help

Question

Hi, I try to install Biztalk2009, with SQL 2008R2CTPNov, on Win Server 2008. I'm blocked at the configuration step "groups" :

It seems that the install can't create Managment database, But the SSO database is created OK...

Has someone a clue ?

As far as I know, Using SQL Server 2008 R2 is not currently supported in any edition of BizTalk, and very likely it doesn't work at all. Official support for SQL2K8R2 is expected as part of BizTalk 2009 R2 later this year.
