[android-developers] Re: Eclair install choked with errors about locks and died horribly leaving corrupted install

Xavier,

I've downloaded the SDK package (v3) and have run both "SDK Setup.exe" and
"android.bat" (I'm on WinXP). But still the same problem... There are not
any open command-lines (but the one running the SDK tool itself) or
explorers!

Can't it be a bug?

Regards,
Armond
