Hmm, I tried it and it wants 1728MB to install. this is not right, it does not use that much space. I don't know much about Windows though. I use W2K & NT4 for legacy support. My Windows 2K drive is short of space, like your drive. I installed it on my Linux host, it only uses 685MB of space. This method works for Oo 3.2.1, which was 486 MB installed. I use Samba and bridged networking for my host/guest setup. The window with the drives you mentioned is an information only window, you change the path to install , elsewhere. -- Peace, Greg -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
