the questions? setup.exe is great for flexibity with
different options for getting and selecting packages. For a school
install, the location and packages can be fixed in advanced and the
questions reduced to the minimum.

Can I also request that you use a seperate variable for the server version

I could use an underscore. I got it to work by changing it to dpi75.
Shouldn't the name in the setup.ini file override that version number

The name from the @ line and the version header could be used to
