Summary: Installation fails on module-xmllib.html

Initial Comment:
On NT 4.0 SP6 installation of Python 2.2b2 hangs with 
the following message:

"Copying Python Documentation (HTML);
F:\Python22\Doc\lib\module-xmllib.html


Upon further investigation it appears the installation 
program is getting hung up while it creates an 
infinite length .tmp file (multiple Gb) that consumes 
all available disk space on the installation drive.

The installation file Python-2.2b2.exe has a file 
length of 7,008,533 bytes.

I've now tried to install both versions 2.1 and 2.2b2 -
both installations have failed for different reasons.

Please get the Windows installations fixed!
