You can pick the location in the setup process. However SQL Server will
still use a lot of space on the system drive. Apparently this mandatory
space on the system drive is even bigger with the new service pack.

| I guess that is why the service pack is failing on me - I got only 2 Gb free
out 8 for the system drive. I will have to uninstall and re-install else
where

That is a good start. Also see the template.ini file on the installation CD. It contains a template
file for your unattended installation.

That advanced pack is, AFAIK, only relevant for Express Edition, where it contains some additional
stuff which isn't in the "normal" Express installation.
