Hmm, my python install is in C:\python24 as well. I didn't use --script-dir, but I did have to run "ez_setup.py -U setuptools" twice before easy_install.exe was created and usable. I did happen to try running easy_install.py after the first run of ez_setup.py and it failed with the No script named error. The second time ez_setup.py was run it downloaded one more package and installed it, sorry I didn't save what it was.

After a bit of struggling with the upgrade on two Windows XP machines, I
think I've sorted it out; if you don't have Python installed in
C:\Python then the easy_install scripts don't get installed properly,
and the subsequent command dies with the 'No script named
easy_install.py' error.

After looking at the OS X instructions I figured that I had to run the
installer as:

  python ez_setup.py --script-dir C:\Python24\Scripts -U setuptools

and then everything worked fine.

Cheers,

Julian.
