After about 72 hours of continuous tries, I finally
succeeded in performing a minimal TeX install on
this system (from Cambridge); I then tried to replicate
this from a local DVD, and it hung at Infra.Win32.
I then deleted the target directory and noted the
files that would not delete automatically : these
were :
Moreverb.inst
Xfrac.dtx
READ.ME
Vertex.doc
README
(Sorry, can't say in which directories).
Despite emptying F:/TeX/Live/2008, the attempt
to install from DVD is still hanging at
Infra.Win32. More experiments needed, but comments
on the read-only files would be appreciated.
