RE: WDSC5 Install - Please Wait

 >> Takes CD1, asks for CD2, get various Windows error messages about wrong
CD in drive.  CD2 runs, then says 'the setup Utility is running Please wait'

Ah ha!  Don't recall that you mentioned that before.  Perhaps your machine
is a little slower/memory challenged than IBM would like it to be?  I had
this problem loading V5 on a PIII laptop with 192Mb of memory.  It seems to
be a timing issue related to the install running multiple threads.  I cured
it in the end by copying _all_ of the CD images to a hard drive directory
(on another machine as I did not have the space) - mapping a network drive
and installing from there.  Worked fine with no silly messages.

Hope this works for you.

PS. I did uninstall before starting the install over.  There were also some
dup files on CDs 1 and 2 - I ended up placing each CD in its own
subdirectory - but I think the contents were identical so it probably
wouldn't have mattered.
