DDK 6000 Problem

I've installed the 6000 DDK on two different machines now. Out of
historical habit, I have all of my DDKs installed into \DDK instead of
\WinDDK.

However, the installer still creates a directory called \WinDDK, and
populates it with one file, DDKVersion.xml.

That's a bug...

Tim,

Let's hope there are no other bugs there (or at least nothing more
serious than the one that you have described) ....

The trick is figuring out how to install to something other than the default
install path. I'm assuming you figured that out, Tim. :)

Yes, and you're right that it isn't immediately obvious. It's not exactly
hidden but it does take a little exploration.
