I suspect that the installer routines will be very different for beta2, but
I'll pass this on in case it either isn't something they've spotted.
Am I correct in assuming that you've successfully installed other .MSI based
products on this system--so this isn't a generic issue with the installer?
You did mention that this was the first time you've done an install with 3.1
of the installer? I doubt that's the root of this, though.
