With CVS from May 28 Vista install boots. But now i got another problem: During extraction of files install stops with an unknown hardware error. Is there a size limit for -cdrom files? The install DVD is about 3,3GB. Am 09.06.2006 um 02:11 schrieb Nigel J. Terry: Christian MICHON wrote:

ok, I'll try that. But I also suspect a win32/mingw limitation on files bigger than 2Gb, since gcc -dumpspecs does not show anything related to -m64, which I'd expect to have to add to CFLAGS to be able to use iso or qcow images bigger than 2Gb. Apparently, experimental build of cygwin may carry
