Re: Running setup twice on a new install

["Karl M" <karlm30 at hotmail dot com>]

Hi All...

I sent an email with the first and second full setup logs for a new win98 
install. The list rejected it because it was too big (more that 100000k 
characters). It should have gone directly to Robert Collins as well.

FWIW, this was a basic install...I didn't do any selections, I just ran 
setup twice on a clean machine (this one was win98 but I have seen this on 
other flavors).

Thanks,

...Karl
