did that to me to so i used

    -rC:\inferno

as well as:

    -g1024x768

but the later is for the display.

i couldn't see the point of didn't placing it to far down the tree (i 'backup'
my lapdog onto cd.  this is virtually impossible on windows with the
horrible adaptec cd burning s/w and the way '2000 is always touching
files and losing memory behind you back).

there are problems with the install doc, so i just figured it out -- best
way to learn how it works.

i got the full distribution as a 'thank you' for the core DES code i wrote
and gave away ages ago -- it turned up in vita's inferno after i'd re-ok'd it
IIRC.
