SKU is Invalid when installing 2nd node in SQL 2008

I was installing SQL Server 2008 on a Windows 2008 cluster the other day and I received and error:  ‘The current SKU is Invalid’.  So I went looking for the resolution.  I came across  a blog post by Vittorio Pavesi that pointed me to the answer.  I did not take the course of copying the install files to the local server.  I was installing from a network share, so I simply moved the file  DefaultSetup.ini to a new location and started the ‘Add node to a SQL Server failover cluster’  again and entered the key included on the DefaultSetup.ini manually.  The rest of the install went without issue.
