SETUP FROZEN!!

Help me! the setup is frozen for VS08 at 'Setup is Loading installation components'! What to do?

Thanks in advance.

that's bad. but just to make sure:

are you aware that it is more or less an waste of time to install VS2008 using crossover/wine? If you get it installed you won't be able to develop .net applications, wouldn't you? But i would be excited and pleased to be proven wrong... (Go ahead!)

As long as the .net 1.1/2.0 framework or greater won't work it is of no use even to able to generate an assembly. Or do you think you might be able to execute your code using mono? Anybody tried to make VS to launch apps with mono? Anyway i guess that launching might work, but debugging with VS and mono seesm even more unlikely.

BTW, does anyone know whether the "compilation" of source code to byte code/.net assemblies works with VS2008? I didn't really got past the setup, too. But i didn't try further because of the lack of .net.

Cheers!

P.S.: there are quite good mono IDEs around.
