I had about 750MB free on c:. I just did a bunch of archiving and
deleting and now there is 6.29GB free. The install still hangs at
exactly the same place. As far as I can tell, it tries to run the
preremove script *before* it does any installing - the only other thing
it seems to do is check the MD5s on the packages...
