Has anyone seen a 1201 disk space error when installing the VM Additions on
NT4 Workstation (with sp6a)? i get a disk space error. says it needs 8000K,
but i have 1.5GB free. I'm running VPC2004 with SP1. Any chance to add a
switch to bypass that space check?

Sorry for not getting back to you - this error sounds vaguely familiar
but I have been unable to track down any information on this.

You may want to try installing the latest version of MSI in your virtual
machine and seeing if that helps.
