I see: this functionality is in development and therefore is well hidden
for the moment. It's a shame that it's not clearly documented .
setup --help displays nothing for me
I suspect this is a cmd.exe or win2000 - related problem ,
because i have seen the same happening with other programs as well
(namely qemu).
