Maybe the w32 installer expects the file to be located at C:/ and per your disk layout I'm not sure it is located there :-) > Also does the w32 loader touch my MBR at all ? As per their instructions it seems that only modifies the bootloader to add an additional entry, but I never used before so I can't tell for sure: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/tools/win32-loader/stable/win32-loader.txt > and how many GB would it need to download after the reboot? My last installation (full gnome desktop+ notebook tools) occupied ~3 GiB but you can select less components so YMMV.
