RE: error during install


I did verify that I was able to get both of my problems resolved by using
an earlier version of setup.exe but neither example was particularly
clean. The "clean" install was on a dual boot machine with little
windoze space and the earlier version of setup failed due to
lack of disk space. It eventually worked but it could be the current
version would have worked too ( although both of my machines
failed in about the same way with the current setup).
