Harmut ,

Does this apply if Ros is started from a freeldr diskette ?

It solves a problem, if you install ros from a bootcd over an existing
ros. The second stage setup hangs. The real bug is somewhere in
wininet.dll. There is an endless loop, if an environment  variable
cannot expand. The variable is %USERPROFILE%. It is independent from the
boot device.
