      Subject: Unable to install J2SE 1.5 on Win2K due to insufficient space on C:
      To: ###@###.###

      On windows 2000, the beta insists on installing at least part of itself
      on the C: drive. Since I don't have enough room on the C: drive, I am
      unable to install on this machine.

      When it first detected that there wasn't much room on C:, it gave me the
      option of installing on a different drive and so I selected E: (which
      has 24Gig free). Despite having selected E: for both the JDK and JRE,
      it is still failing due to lack of space on C:
