Hi all I'm ready with the first alpha of the new native Windows installer I've been working on. It would be very cool if some of the Windows people here would make a test install and write back with feedback.
Basically, everything needs testing. Installer, start/stop scripts, launcher and uninstaller. Spelling/wording/grammar corrections are welcome too (English isn't my native language, so chances are I've made several mistakes in that area!). Please also write back with anything in the process that seems unintuitive. Feel free to challenge it by installing an old version of Java first or installing the node on an SD card or weird stuff like that. I've only tested it on Windows XP myself, so especially 2000, 2003 and Vista tests are much appreciated. I'd be surprised if everything works out-of-the-box on those systems. Keep in mind that this is alpha software. While I've done my best to make it bulletproof, I could obviously have made mistakes at some point. (Please find them! ;)). Multiple concurrent installations are supported, but if an installation with the current Java installer is detected, it will ask you to uninstall it first. Source is available in trunk/apps/winstaller @ SVN for those who like to compile themselves Compiled binary is available at http://privat.zero3.dk/FreenetInstaller.exe for the rest of us - Zero3 _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list [email protected] http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
