That's fine, do a single update immediately after install. If they are
"not an option" how come most OS's on the planet are not patched? (not
that this is a good thing, mind you).
I've been doing this long enough to know that patches can often break more
than they fix (and can introduce their own security bugs). To blindly
patch all the time is an immature way of being an admin.
