Hello,

I'm attempting to install 2.1.6 from a DOS partition.  After going through 
the installation dialog and the installation starts, I get errors that the 
bin cannot be copied (after a " -1 of 1024 bytes" written message.)
Occasionally, I'll get a message box that explains that bin may not be on 
the installation media.  However, sometimes  it looks like some of src is 
being found and copied.

My machine has a 2.5G IDE drive, and has a 500MB DOS partition.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Ben
