Pau do you > think that is possible? CMake can certainly be built by VC++ but you need CMake to do that, VC++-CMake cannot be bootstrapped.

That'd be right, if I have understood what the netinstaller does (I've never used it yet). -- Pau Garcia i Quiles http://www.elpauer.org (Due to my workload, I may need 10 days to answer)
