I like to install ConTeXt on a Windows (XP) machine (so I can make an
installation manual). I use:

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Standalone#Installation_and_use_on_Windows

The preferable setup would be with the GUI. But when I do this. I get:
    update failed
    Error code: 1
and
    Make failed
    Error code: 1

What is happening here?

I also tried (in c:\context):
    first-setup.bat --context=current

This looks okay, but when running context I get:

mtxrun          | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'

So it looks like the script first-setup.bat needs some finetuning. The
script context expects a file:
    c:/contextminimal/texmf-local/web2c/texmfcnf.lua'
there is a directory:
  C:\context\tex\texmf-local
but this directory is empty.

Is the script wrong, or am I doing something wrong? Under Linux I did not
have a problem.
