Patching

I've created a patch and am attempting to apply it to an installation that was performed using the Compressed Single File installer. I get the prompt for source media, and can't seem to find where it is. I was under the impression that this should be at %temp%\\MIA*.tmp but I have nothing there that registers as a valid source (only the miaXX.tmp created by the patch).
Where can I find the source media?

Please read the help file, patching section patch source resolution subsection. Also be sure to read the patching whitepaper.

Patching can get sticky if you dont do it right - while going through the help, pay close attention to Product Codes as well as the Revision Codes.
Also consider looking into Web Updates
You may want to clear your Temp folder before you start on building and testing your setups.

I did read the white paper. That's what told me to look in the %temp% folder to start with.
Any other Ideas?
