[izpack-users] Installer for VISTA (was <no subject>)

Hi Klaus,

Yes, it will/should definitly fail ...

Yes, that works if you install it into your profile folder. But you don't get an error message if you try to install a write protected directory ... That is weird.

What about merging izpack with the launcher? - I haven't tested it yet, but that could solve the problem, does'nt it?

Best
