FIPS 140-2 Compliance Mode on Windows Server 2008 R2

Question

Can someone please confirm that the information contained in the article titled "Instructions for using SQL Server 2008 in FIPS 140-2-compliant mode", provided from  FIPS 140-2 Compliance pertains to Windows Server and SQL Server 2008 R2?  The article only refers to Windows and SQL Server 2008 and I need to be certain that the information is the same for Windows and SQL Server 2008 R2.

Thank you for your help with this!
